A photograph of an outdoor ritual beside a large banyan tree with many hanging aerial roots. A bearded man with long dark hair, wearing a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl, a flower garland and gold armband, stands on a tiger-skin mat facing the trunk, holding ritual items. Nearby, a row of devotees with folded hands includes women in yellow and green saris. A cameraman films, and a man in white dhoti stands behind. The trunk is decorated with a string of white, yellow, pink and purple flower garlands, and a colourful rangoli lies on the ground with scattered petals.
