Night photograph of a person seen from behind in a rust-red and orange-gold dhoti and matching upper cloth, with an orange head covering and bangles on the wrists. They hold a long string of fireworks in one hand and light a row of upright firecrackers on a cardboard box on dark dirt ground strewn with debris, with sparks and smoke rising from the fuses. The scene reads as a Deepavali firecracker celebration. No readable names are visible, and the person's identity is not established by appearance.
