A photo of a devotional ceremony in a bright hall. A bald man in a pink short-sleeved shirt kneels and holds out cupped hands to receive a small green fruit, possibly a lime, from a priest. The priest wears a white dhoti with a gold border, a rudraksha mala and a sandalwood tilak. Behind him stands another white-clad attendant with long hair and a garland of white flowers draped over the arm. Lotus blossoms and pink flowers appear at the lower right, and several hands hold more fruit at the left. Saffron-clad figures stand in the background.
