A photograph of a standing man in full saffron-orange sannyasi dress on a grassy high-altitude plain beside a blue lake under a partly cloudy sky. He wears an orange turban with an ornate gold-and-jewel brooch, an orange shawl draped over one shoulder, and a long rudraksha mala of dark seeds across his chest. He raises one hand in a blessing-like gesture and holds a brass trident in the other. Behind him are prayer flags in red and green and white plastic bundles on the ground. Only this one person is visible in the scene.
