Outdoor photo of a group descending a wide stone staircase, many wearing orange shawls. In the foreground a man in a long-sleeved red-orange top and orange wrap walks down the steps, flanked by a man in an orange wrap with a red-brown border and a bag strap. Behind them a man in white kurta and orange shawl and a man in white with an orange shawl and a bag are walking, and a bearded man in white dhoti and orange shawl holds a walking staff. Two women in white tops with orange scarves stand among the group. A red-painted wall and posters on the right; a few other people with orange wraps are visible at the left edge. The foreground man has long hair tied back and appears to be a person by appearance cues: long hair and orange ceremonial clothing, though the image is not conclusive.

Several monastic followers in saffron/orange robes descend a concrete staircase at a hillside temple entrance. A man in the centre wears white dhoti-style clothing with an orange shawl over his shoulder. Yellow and red ribbons hang overhead from a line, and a blue tarp awning shelters the wall beside them.
