Outdoor photo on a paved courtyard beside an orange building and palm fronds. A bare-chested man with long hair tied up, wearing a red-brown dhoti with a gold border and a rudraksha-style bead necklace, stands with his back to the camera facing a large group of boys and young men in saffron-orange robes with pink borders. Many have white forehead markings and bead necklaces. Some hold brass horns (long curved trumpets) and others hold drums with leather heads, while several gather close around them. Two men in white shirts stand at the back left. Flowering shrubs and a tiled wall frame the scene.
