A photograph of a crowded riverside ghat at the Triveni Sangam, where a stone embankment meets calm water in the foreground. Many people in mixed clothing stand and sit along the edge. A prominent figure in the centre wears a bright saffron-orange robe with dark hair swept back and hands raised, while nearby people wear white and cream clothes. Some hold bags and bundles, and others kneel close to the water, with an orange-clad person at the far right, a small boat and a flat grey sky overhead.

Outdoor photograph at a riverbank ghat. In the foreground a figure with long dark hair and an orange-saffron robe stands on the stone steps at the water's edge, arms extended toward a second figure in white. Around them a crowd of people in white, cream and muted clothing stand on the ghat and wade near the water, with a red-clad figure at right. Hazy pale sky and water fill the background. Several people appear to be gathered for a river ritual.2006-01-08A photograph at a riverbank ghat with a crowd standing on wet stone steps above flowing water. In the centre, a figure with long dark hair wears an orange-saffron robe and extends an arm over the river, apparently offering or pouring something into the water. Around them, devotees in white, cream and pale clothing stand close together, several with dark shawls or wraps; a man on the right holds a dark cloth or bag. Some people wear traditional headwear and women wear saris. The setting suggests a sacred river bathing or offering ritual at a confluence.
