Many people wear white or cream ritual clothes with red and brown rudraksha malas. Several colourful umbrellas, including yellow, orange, blue and floral ones, shelter the crowd. A bearded man in an orange-saffron top stands near the left-centre, and a bald man in white with a red sash stands centre. A man in a dark shirt with a camera stands in the lower right, and another photographer works in the lower foreground. Behind them people in saris and salwar kameez watch attentively in a dense assembly, possibly for an early-morning temple observance.
