The figure has long dark hair, holds palms together at the chest in anjali mudra, and a white beaded mala hangs from the wrist. Two small red-and-white patterned mats lie on the stone. Appearance-based a person candidate: long swept-back hair, saffron robe and mala cues are present, but the face is not visible, so identity is uncertain and this is a devotee-style prayer scene in a temple grove.2013-05-09A photograph of a single standing figure seen from behind on a dark polished floor, standing on a red and white patterned mat before a massive banyan tree with many aerial roots and large spreading branches.
