Outdoor photo on a dirt path beside a wire fence and a white car. A man in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban walks forward smiling, a shawl draped over his shoulder. Behind him, a colourful striped umbrella with fringe stands on a tall lattice tower. A cameraman in white kurta and dhoti films him with a handheld video camera, and a man in white stands at left. A bald man in orange robes stands at right near the car, and a woman in white stands behind the walking figure. The walking man wears long, swept-back hair and carries distinctive saffron ascetic attire; appearance suggests a person candidate, presence uncertain. Other people in white are priests or devotees.
