Night gathering outdoors under a tarpaulin with a string of small bunting visible at top left. A young man with long dark hair, wearing an orange saffron garment, a leopard-print shawl over his shoulders, a rudraksha mala and a gold necklace, sits smiling on a leopard-print cloth, possibly a person candidate whose cues are long hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha beads. An elderly bald man in white with glasses and a walking cane sits beside him, and a man in orange on the left wears a rudraksha mala. Several standing men in white dhotis and shirts, some with red shawls, stand behind, with women in saris seated at right and a man in a white shirt holding a cloth. Counting the visible people, the scene has roughly 10 to 12 people.

The seated figure is positioned at right on a raised platform edge; a candidate matching a person by appearance (long swept hair, orange clothing, bead malas) is visible, so this is probable. Around them, several men wear white dhotis and orange shawls, one with a rudraksha mala and another with a white forehead mark. A younger man in orange kneels in front holding a mobile phone, while more people stand in the background among lights and a camera on a stand at upper right.2008-08-02Night-time outdoor photo at a ritual site on bare ground strewn with straw.
