Outdoor photo on sandy ground of a crowd of saffron and orange robed sannyasis and devotees gathered near a white and blue canopy with a person banner. In the centre-right, a woman in an orange robe and rudraksha mala stands with hands folded in front of her body. Men around her wear red and orange turbans, bare-chested devotees hold yellow and orange shawls, and one man in a white turban and white dhoti stands at left. Trees and a clear sky are behind. Most people are shown from behind or in profile. No one can be clearly identified as a person from appearance alone, so the central robed figure is described by role only.
