Aerial photograph at dusk of a large temporary encampment at the Kumbh Mela, with rows of white and grey tents, red and striped tent canopies, parked white vehicles on a wide dirt road, and orange gateway arches. Many small lights glow across the crowded tent city under a pale orange sunset sky. No individual people are clearly identifiable at this distance, and no person is identifiable as a person.
