A photograph of a man in a pink and orange turban and pink robe with a rudraksha-style white and red beaded mala garland, smiling and raising his right hand in blessing toward a line of devotees. The devotees on the left, several men in shirts, stand with palms pressed together in anjali and some bow their heads. To the right, a saffron-robed attendant stands near a tray of offerings in a hall with a banner in the background. Possibly a person: long hair, saffron and pink ornate clothing, and a beaded mala garland are visible, but the appearance is not conclusive enough to confirm identity.
