Around her, a man in white dhoti and shirt with an orange shawl bends forward, and a young man in orange robes kneels at the car door. Other devotees in white and saffron clothing and a woman in a yellow and pink sari stand nearby, several with hands joined, and a child sits on the ground in pink. Some hold small offerings and flowers. The scene is an outdoor devotional greeting on a dusty road in front of a building.2009-01-18November 25 20092009-11-25February 15 20092009-02-15July 29 20082008-07-29August 03 20092009-08-03Outdoor street scene in daylight beside a parked silver SUV and a tree.
