Outdoor ritual photograph at a stone-pillared shrine with a white-washed building and corrugated roof behind. In the centre, an elderly bearded man with long grey hair and an orange-saffron garment stands with his back to the camera, facing a draped gold-bordered cloth. To the right, a younger man in an orange turban and orange top with a rudraksha mala stands close beside him, one hand extended toward the shrine. On a stone platform in the foreground sit brass bowls and lamps, a white conch shell, a bowl of fruit and flower offerings. On the left, several photographers in orange clothing hold up cameras, and a white-clad man and a bearded man in white stand at the right edge.
