Outdoor photo beneath a large ancient banyan tree with dense aerial roots and sprawling limbs. A group of about eight people stands on a dark polished stone platform around the trunk, several in saffron/orange robes and others in white dhotis and white shirts. One orange-robed figure in the centre raises an arm toward the branches, while others stand with hands folded or stand attentively. A golden tall stand or lamp post is visible at the left edge, and white-painted circular bases surround the tree. Sandy ground with decorative white kolam-style lines lies at the bottom of the frame.

In the foreground a man in white clothes with an orange shawl stands facing right. Beside him, a bare-chested man in orange dhoti and orange shawl stands on a rock with his back to the camera, long dark hair falling down. Behind them an older man in white clothes stands near the trunk. A few other people in white and orange are partly visible at the left edge. The faces of the people are not shown in detail. No identity is confirmed from appearance; the bare-chested figure with long hair and orange garments is a candidate only, with uncertain appearance.2006-10-07December 31 20082008-12-31
