A photograph of a crowd at an evening procession. A bearded man with long dark hair and white vibhuti marks on his forehead wears a rust-red saffron-toned robe, a dark rudraksha mala, and a large garland of green leaves, pink and yellow flowers. He smiles and holds a small offering in his hand. Around him, devotees in orange and saffron robes with ornate gold necklaces and white tilaka marks stand close. In the foreground an elderly man in a white shirt holds out cupped hands for prasad, while a man in a yellow-striped shirt and an elderly woman in a light blue sari join in. A blue-green cloth is draped over one arm. Behind them a whitewashed wall with a doorway and a painted yellow sign. Swamiji (probable): the bearded man with long hair, saffron-toned robe, rudraksha mala and flower garland is central to the scene.
