A photo of a large outdoor Holi celebration in a palm-lined compound with a low block wall behind. A dense crowd of many people, mostly adults and some children, stands and dances, their white and pale clothes splashed with pink, red, orange and purple powder. A tall wooden pole stands at the centre. A man in a saffron-orange wrap and long swept-back hair stands near the middle, with another man in a dark blue kurta beside him; the orange-robed figure's appearance matches the page's reference to a person, but the match is not certain. Parked vehicles and spectators in white line the back of the courtyard, and a blue sign hangs on a pole at left.
