A photograph of a small room with pale yellow walls and a ceiling fan. In the centre a man with long dark hair and a full beard wears a red-orange jacket over a maroon garment and stands with hands joined, holding white flowers near a lit oil lamp on an orange-covered table. The table holds brass bells, a brass kalasha-like vessel, fruit, a bowl and more flowers. To the right, a printed portrait on the wall wears a yellow and white flower garland and a rudraksha-style mala. Behind him, a man in a teal shirt and dhoti and an older man in white dhoti with a brown shawl stand with hands joined in namaskar. The man in the red-orange jacket has long hair, a beard and a red-orange jacket, consistent with the a person cues, so this is a probable appearance-based match.
