Outdoors on a sandy riverbank with bamboo poles and distant tents behind, a photo shoot is underway. A man in a cap lies on the sand photographing, and another man in a khaki shirt and cap stands beside a white reflector panel on a tripod, pointing toward a seated person wrapped in a pinkish-mauve shawl. A bare-chested man with long dark hair, wearing an orange-saffron dhoti-style wrap and a beaded necklace, stands among several onlookers in casual shirts and trousers, including a boy in a yellow striped shirt. A green tent is visible at left.
