Night photograph of a seated figure on an ornate golden throne with red tiger-striped upholstery. The seated figure wears a rust-orange turban, a saffron-orange robe, a long garland of orange, green, white and red flowers, and a red-and-blue beaded rudraksha mala, with gold bangles on the wrist. Appearance-based candidate: a person, seated and receiving a devotee in a central ceremonial role. Facing him, a man in a white shirt with a white forehead mark and a wristwatch leans forward with folded hands and holds a pen-like object, while a second devotee in saffron clothing kneels beside a brass plate of offerings. Behind them a crowd in white and saffron stands under banana leaves and a decorated orange-and-white banner, with a golden lamp stand in the foreground.
