A flat-roofed brick terrace overlooking a rural compound under a heavy grey sky. A figure in a long orange robe with bare feet and hair tied up walks away from the camera toward a low brick parapet with white railings. Two people stand in the foreground at the right: a person with curly hair in a patterned top, and a man in a white shirt with an orange shawl. Below, white-walled sheds, green-roofed buildings, a water tower, palm trees and hills extend across the scene. Visible ritual-free setting, a rooftop tour during an ashram inauguration.
