A photograph of a group walking single file along a dirt path through dry green scrub and thin trees. In the foreground a figure in a flowing saffron-orange robe and sandals leads the way, head uncovered. Behind them a long line of women and some men wear white cotton garments, several with white shawls or white dhotis, and one man at right wears a white kurta with a yellow shawl. Small stones and a low stone marker sit at the path edge. The scene suggests a walking procession or pilgrimage through the countryside. Count visible people: roughly twenty.
