A photograph of an outdoor street scene in a roadside setting with trees. A central man in a rust-red saffron robe wears a thick multicoloured flower garland of yellow, white and red blossoms over rudraksha beads, and has a white vertical tilak on his forehead. Two men flank him: on the left a bare-chested, white-dhoti-clad priest with a long topknot, yellow-bordered cloth and a bead bracelet, who grips the garland's end; on the right a bare-chested man in a white dhoti with yellow border and a long braid, whose hand extends toward the central figure. A woman in orange and a parked auto-rickshaw appear at the edges.
