A photograph of a person in a green sleeveless top with gold trim, hair tied in a bun, bending forward to press their forehead against a pale stone ledge or pedestal. A large bundle of red and orange-banded cloth rests on the stone beside them, and a carved stone motif is visible near the ledge. The background shows a red wall and weathered grey temple stonework. The person's face is turned away from the camera and no ceremonial outline of a person is clearly identifiable from appearance, so no candidate is marked.
