A photograph of a temple floor scene where a person with long dark dreadlocked hair, a white flower garland and orange-brown cloth lies prostrate, face down with hands folded near the head, in a full pranam. Around them stand devotees and priests in white dhoti with gold borders, saffron-orange robes and a blue tracksuit. One man on the right holds a red-and-white cloth with a yellow-and-orange flower garland, and a photographer with a camera stands at the top. Red flower petals are scattered on the grey stone floor. The prostrate figure's build and dreadlocks are a probable match for a person from distinctive visible cues, though the face is not visible.
