A photograph of a crowd exiting a temple doorway in daylight, with a white-walled entrance and a dark interior behind. In the centre, a smiling man in a maroon-brown wrap carries a dense multi-strand rudraksha mala and matching bead bracelets; he has a short beard and holds a small bucket. Around him, shirtless men with dreadlocked hair and long rudraksha malas, some with gold-coloured bead necklaces, surround him, and one wears an orange cloth. A bald man in a maroon wrap stands behind, and a woman in a turquoise sari walks in the background. A white-uniformed official with a lanyard stands at left beside a green road sign reading 5. Blue hoses lie coiled on the right.
