A sunny village lane lined with white compound walls, banana plants and palm trees, with a white building with arched doorways on the right. A man in a long saffron-orange robe with a loose wrap walks barefoot down the centre of the road, his hair long and swept back. Beside him a woman in a white embroidered salwar kameez with a white shawl walks toward the camera. Behind, several men in white dhotis walk along the lane, including two bare-chested men on the right, one wearing a necklace, and a row of people in white further back. Strings of decorative lights hang overhead under a rooftop pole. Swamiji (probable) is the saffron-robed man walking in front, based on distinctive long hair and orange robe cues.
