A photograph at night of a central man in a rust-brown turban with a gold band and a brown silk kurta-style outfit with gold trim, wearing a white and orange flower garland with purple accents and gold ornaments, hands pressed together in namaste and smiling. Around him stands a crowd of devotees in saffron, orange, red and white saris and white dhotis, many with palms joined in prayer; on the right, men in orange robes with rudraksha malas stand among them. Trees fill the dark background. The central man wears distinctive ornate gold necklaces and a turban, and the page identifies this event as involving a person, so he is a person candidate.
