A photograph of a figure wading into shallow, churning water at the seashore. The visible part of the person has long, dark, dreadlock-like hair hanging down the left side, a red-beaded rudraksha-style bracelet on the wrist, and a reddish-brown garment with a gold-bordered hem. Other people in white dhotis with yellow borders stand nearby in the surf, and only their legs and feet are visible. The water is brown and foamy.
