Night photograph of an outdoor darshan at a raised platform. A seated figure with long swept-back dark hair, wearing an orange-saffron garment and a red and white garland of flowers, sits on a red-cushioned seat before a golden ornate throne decorated with white and red flowers, holding a small white bowl and reaching toward a devotee. Several devotees in saris and casual clothes stand before the platform: a woman in a cream floral sari, a woman in a dark green sari, a girl in a blue dress, and men in white and red tops, with a man in a red garment. An orange barrier rope runs along the front. The seated figure has distinctive long hair, orange clothing and a flower garland, consistent with a probable Swamiji presence; the figure is the only candidate in view.
