A photo taken at night outdoors shows a shirtless man with a beard and topknot placing a long garland of yellow and red flowers over the head of a seated person in a brown leather chair. The standing man wears a red-and-orange cloth, a red beaded necklace, and an arm band; the seated person wears a red beaded necklace, a dark wrap, and a leopard-print garment, with wet hair and face as if water was poured. Behind them stand a robed attendant holding a bead mala with hands joined, a white fan, and a woman in white with a red necklace. Smoke or mist drifts through the scene. Two people are clearly visible plus two partial figures, so the count is in the 2-5 range.
