Inside a bright white tent, a bald man in a rust-brown robe with a long gold-toned necklace stands beside a tall silver trident (trishul) held upright. Around him, several people in brown and red-brown robes and white clothing gather among devotees. A girl in a dark top stands near a man in a light shirt who bends forward and touches a ceremonial object. In the foreground, a gold-decorated kalasha (ritual pot) sits beside a red-and-gold object, and a yellow cloth draped over an item is trimmed with red, green and purple pompoms. Behind them, a red-and-orange flame-shaped backdrop and hanging crystal chandelier are visible.
