A photograph taken at night in a workshop-like space with a lattice wall and a reflective silver sheet behind. In the foreground, a man in a bright orange turban and orange robe, with long dark hair and a strand of rudraksha beads across his chest, stands beside a wooden stepped structure of layered wooden planks. He holds a wooden staff and a silver video camera is strapped to his arm. Two men in white shirts and white dhotis stand to the left and center, looking toward the wooden structure. A green folding chair marked JP, a heap of cloth and bags sit behind them. The orange-robed figure has distinctive long hair, rudraksha beads and an orange turban, but his face is not visible so identity is uncertain.
