A photograph of a group meditation session held outdoors under a corrugated metal roof beside a white-washed wall. A standing person in a bright red sleeveless top and orange skirt with an orange shawl over one shoulder faces the seated group with their back to the camera. Thirty-plus seated participants wear white blindfold-style headbands; many wear white or pastel clothes, a man in a grey hoodie and jeans sits cross-legged, and a man in a white t-shirt and dark trousers sits on his heels in the foreground. A green mat and framed photographs are visible on the wall, and a camera on a tripod stands at the right. Several other people in orange robes are visible in the background.
