Night photograph of a temple courtyard with pillared pavilions and a lamp post in the background. In the centre, a figure in an orange-saffron robe with a long swept-back hairstyle and a white and red flower garland walks with hands joined in greeting. Beside him, a man in a white shirt and cream dhoti with a gold border, hands folded in namaskar, walks forward. Behind them a young person in a green kurta and white churidar and several other men follow. On the right, a man in a black shirt carries a woven basket of flower petals, and a priest in an orange dhoti with a waist cloth stands at a pillar. Swamiji (probable): the central figure in the orange robe shows long swept-back hair and a saffron garment with a garland, which are the qualifying cues for this presentation.
