Night outdoor photo at a celebration with string lights and potted banana plants behind a crowd. A central figure in orange robes and an orange turban wears a large white jasmine garland and rests a hand on the head of a kneeling devotee in white. Other devotees in white clothes, some with rudraksha malas, stand and kneel nearby, one with palms pressed together. A tray holds fruit, candy and folded banknotes, and a white pillow sits at right. Photo-based appearance cues on the central robed figure are present, but identity cannot be confirmed from appearance, so a person is noted only as a label with uncertainty.
