Indoor camp tent with orange walls at a Kumbh Mela event. A bearded elder in an orange shawl over a yellow sweater, wearing glasses and a red tilak, leans on a black cane while a man in a rust-orange sannyasi garment with a large gold bead necklace and a striped cloth bag holds his arm and speaks on a mobile phone. A man in a grey sweater and a man in a dark jacket stand nearby, and women in saris sit behind on the right. Printed posters hang on the orange backdrop. A tripod-mounted camera stands at right. Visible people are roughly seven, so the count range is 6-20.
