A photograph of seated devotees on green mats in an open camp tent with an orange backdrop at the Kumbha Mela. In the foreground a man in white dhoti and shawl with a rudraksha mala sits cross-legged, another in white with red-bordered cloth sits beside him, and a man in a white garment with a red cloth at the waist sits at right, all with white tilak on their foreheads. Behind them more seated men in white and light clothing sit on green mats and red plastic chairs. A man in a brown cap and white cloth sits on a red chair at centre. A printed banner above lists temples such as Kanchipuram, St. Louis-Tirumala, Malaysia-Palani and Hyderabad-Bhagyanagaram with deity photographs. No figure is clearly identifiable as a person from appearance.
