Night outdoor scene of a muddy, puddled open ground lit by a bright floodlight on the right. About a dozen young people in orange, yellow and red clothing stand in a loose line, some bent forward as if in a game or drill, while one figure in white stands among them. Behind them seated devotees in orange and saffron clothing sit in rows near a line of green trees. The scene appears to be a lively group activity on the ground. No clear figure can be confidently identified as a person from appearance, so the identity is left unsure.

Night photograph of a sandy outdoor ground during a Krishna Janmashtami games event, lit by a bright floodlight. Many people in orange and saffron clothing run, leap and raise their arms across the sand, while a crowd in orange sits along the edge watching. A woman in the foreground wears an orange sari with a matching orange wrap and bangles. Some figures wear white dhotis or white clothes. A white boundary line marks the sand, and a striped canopy and decorated stands appear in the background beside a multi-storey building. No single figure is identifiable as the a person with the visible cues required.
