Photograph inside a stone temple corridor at Angkor Wat, Cambodia, with weathered dark stone pillars on the left. In the foreground a young man with a shaved head and a red bindi wears an orange-saffron cloth draped over his shoulders and looks toward the camera. Behind him a figure in a white and yellow patterned garment stands near a dark doorway. Centre background shows a shrine with tall golden trident-shaped finials and a red-orange cloth draped over a deity murti. A man in a green shirt and khaki trousers climbs a worn stone step toward the shrine. Blurred motion and a yellow object at the lower right suggest a moving crowd.
