Outdoor photograph of a procession crowd in which a man in an orange-red turban and orange robe, with long dark hair, a dark rudraksha mala and a bowed head, reaches forward to touch the shoulder of a second man in an orange robe with a heavy gold necklace of large beads. Behind them, devotees in white dhotis and shirts, one wearing a rudraksha mala and eyeglasses, stand among orange flags and palm foliage. The gesture suggests a blessing or respectful greeting during a yatra. The orange-robed figure with the turban is an appearance-based a person, identified by swept-back hair, a turban, saffron clothing and a rudraksha mala.
