A photograph of a procession or ceremonial gathering outdoors. A seated figure in the centre wears saffron-orange robes, a red-and-white headcloth, and multiple rudraksha beads around the neck and an orange shawl, with a bare-chested, bearded man beside him. A man in a red-and-white checked shirt stoops toward him from the left, and a standing man in orange robes with long dark hair gestures with his right hand. Several men in white shirts and dhotis, one in uniform, stand in the background among a crowd of devotees. The figure in the centre has a long white beard and is seated on a low wooden seat. Candidate identity is uncertain from appearance alone, so the central figure is described by role as a seated sannyasi receiving devotion.
