Outdoor photograph of a mallakhamba-style pole yoga set-up on a paved ground beside a gilded golden canopy and ornate golden throne-like structure. A bare-chested man with long hair stands beside a tall wooden pole, reaching toward it, in white shorts. Behind him a seated figure in red and gold sits on a golden throne with a red cushion, and a striped cloth covers a raised red platform with blue mats. Several people in saffron-orange robes stand around, including a woman in orange at left and an attendant in orange at right, while camera operators in casual clothes and a camera rig are visible at left. Palm trees and a golden chariot-like structure appear in the background.
