Night photo at a large orange-canopied camp during a crowded festival gathering. In the foreground, a bearded man in an orange-red robe with a red tilak on his forehead gestures and speaks while looking upward. Beside him stands a woman in a rust-brown turban with heavy gold necklaces and bangles, wearing a dark red garment, and a bald man wearing a red turban and large gold ornaments. Several younger men in orange and saffron clothing, some wearing beaded malas, stand close together among a dense crowd. Tents, hanging lights and orange cloth structures fill the background, and a metal lamp or vessel is visible in the lower foreground.
