A photograph of a long-haired man in an orange saffron wrap and rudraksha malas pressing his right palm onto the forehead of a young boy in a dark striped polo shirt, who stands with hands folded in anjali. The man smiles; both wear rudraksha beads, and the boy also wears a pendant. Behind them, people in orange, yellow and white clothing move in a crowded hall with red drapes on the left. A green light glows in the background. Visible people include the two main figures and several others partly in view, so the count is in the 6-20 range.
