Several men wear white dhotis and white shirts with saffron or orange shawls and yellow sashes; others wear orange and saffron robes. One man in an orange robe and a shorter man in white stand near the right, next to a white stone pillar with red painted sections. A woman in an orange sari carries a teal bucket, and another woman in orange walks in front. Two men in orange robes stand on the right by the white pillar. Mood is a ritual gathering after a festival, with rubble from fireworks or offerings underfoot.
