A close photograph of a shaved-headed man seated on a light wooden floor, performing a yoga breathing practice with his right hand raised to his nose and his left arm reaching over his head. He wears a grey sleeveless top, olive-green trousers, a wooden rudraksha-style bead mala, and a small red bindi on his forehead. Behind him, blurred figures in white clothing sit on a blue mat, and a light wall is visible. The scene suggests a group yoga session.

A shaved-headed man sits cross-legged on a dark mat in a meditation posture, wearing a white sleeveless tank top, beige loose trousers, and a dark rudraksha mala with a small round pendant. He has white vertical tilak marks on his forehead and a red dot at the centre, and his right hand is raised to his nose in a nasal breathing practice while his left hand rests on his knee.
