A photograph at a riverbank of the Triveni Sangam confluence, with hazy pale sky over water. In the foreground a figure in a long orange-red robe bends low at the water's edge, reaching down toward the river. Behind, a line of about a dozen people in white and pale clothing stands on a stone embankment, some with white shawls and some in red, watching. A small red-hulled boat sits at the left edge of the water. A date stamp appears in the lower right corner of the image.
