A narrow lane between a pale blue wall on the left and a tall yellow wall on the right, with a line of devotees standing on both sides with palms pressed together in namaste. Women in white saris with gold borders and red blouses stand in a long row, several with flowers in their hair, and an elderly woman in a white sari with a red border is in front. Men in white shirts and dhotis stand among them, and a man in a pink shirt in the foreground turns his head toward the camera. Small white marks dot the lane's center, and the sky is pale above the buildings.
