Outdoor photo under a clear blue sky of a ceremony at the Kanchipuram ashram site. A central figure in an orange saffron robe and matching orange head wrap wears a long garland of white flowers with yellow and red blossoms and a pink flower bundle at the hem, standing with a shawl-clad crowd around him. A man in white shirt and dhoti bends forward at lower left, while people in white and saffron shawls, a young girl in a pink-flowered white sari and a boy in white stand nearby, with rudraksha malas visible on several necks. The central figure appears to be a person, identified by a saffron robe, orange head wrap and ceremonial garland; the page excerpt describes a bhoomi pooja and foundation inauguration on 24 Nov 2006.
