Night photograph outdoors on sand. A seated man in a red and gold-bordered robe wears a long gold-beaded garland, gold armlets, a rudraksha-style necklace and a white-and-red forehead mark, sitting on a leopard-print cushioned wooden seat with a red mat in front. A silver trident stands upright at left with a maroon base. Behind him a standing man in a white dhoti and shawl, with a dark bead mala, stands in the background. The seated figure matches a person's ceremonial presentation with saffron-red robes, ornate gold garlands and a trident, but the face is not sufficiently distinctive to confirm the identity, so the candidate is marked uncertain.
