A photograph of a person standing outdoors beside a large banyan tree trunk with aerial roots, leaning forward with one palm resting against the bark and eyes closed. The person wears a red-orange silk garment with gold-bordered drape over the shoulder, a red shawl, a heavy gold and beaded necklace, gold armlets and gold bangles, and has long dark hair tied up with a white vibhuti mark on the forehead. A green leafy garland hangs along the tree trunk beside them, sandy ground and blurred greenery behind.

The person wears a rust-orange sleeveless garment with a wide gold-bordered shimmering wrap, and a long beaded orange-brown mala hangs around the neck. A white vertical forehead mark is visible, eyes closed in a calm, meditative pose. The background shows green foliage and a reddish earth path. Appearance cues include the saffron-toned ceremonial dress and beaded mala, but identity cannot be confirmed from appearance, so this is a person in devotional posture against a tree.2013-11-05May 05 20122012-05-05A photograph of a person standing beside a large banyan tree trunk with aerial roots, one hand resting against the bark.
