A photograph of a person in an orange robe prostrating on a pale tiled floor, forehead pressed down, bare feet visible at the right, arms folded beneath the body. Only partial legs and feet of other people are visible at the top edge, and a white sack with blue lettering sits in the upper right corner. The orange cloth covers the back and wraps the legs. No deity, altar or a person appearance is clearly visible, so no candidate is identified.
