December 31 20082008-12-31A crowd gathers outdoors under leafy trees in daylight. In the foreground a man in an orange turban, orange robe and rudraksha mala stands with palms pressed together in namaste, smiling broadly. Beside him a man in white clothes with an orange shawl, glasses and a red tilak presses his hands together. Other men in white shirts and dhotis, some with orange shawls, surround them, with more onlookers and a few women in saris behind.
