A photograph of a sandy open ground where several men in saffron-orange robes play a lively game, one mid-stride in the foreground with bare feet and arms swung wide. Around them a large crowd of onlookers stands watching, many in orange and red clothing, with a few in white and some shirtless youths. Behind them are red multi-storey buildings, a golden dome, palm trees and a floodlight on a pole. No clearly identifiable a person figure is evident with confidence in the crowd, so the identity remains uncertain.
