A man with long, swept-back dark hair and an orange saffron robe stands smiling broadly, hands raised and open, with a white and blue-striped garland of flowers around his neck. Above him a large ornate pink and red parasol with fringed edges and a tall wooden pole is held over the crowd, and a row of saffron flags on white poles stands behind him. Hands of other people reach in from the right edge and the bottom of the frame, and the tops of several heads are visible in the foreground. The orange robe, long hair and garland are appearance cues consistent with Swamiji (probable), shown here as a candidate in person during a procession, with a parasol and saffron flags typical of a ceremonial outdoor event.2006-12-25A photograph taken from below of a smiling person seated under a large umbrella decorated with peacock feathers, with red, orange, teal and blue tassels.
