A man with long dark hair and a red bindi on his forehead stands outdoors with eyes closed and palms pressed together in namaste, head slightly bowed. He wears a bright blue shawl edged with a lighter blue border over bare shoulders and a heavy ornate gold necklace with large gold beads. Blurred palm trees and a red pillar fill the background.
