Outdoor photograph of a procession on a rocky path lined with trees and a crowd of villagers. In the foreground, a smiling man in an orange turban and orange sleeveless robe wears a long string of large brown rudraksha beads and has long dark hair; he appears to be a sannyasi, and the cues are a turban, long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, so this is an appearance-based probable Swamiji. Beside him walk two men in white shirts, and behind them are women in saffron, blue and pink saris and children. Two more saffron-robed attendants stand at the right edge, and an orange and yellow banner is visible above the crowd.
