Outdoor photo of a ritual set up in a dusty yard in front of a red brick wall with shrubs and a tall bamboo flagpole. On the right, a large printed cutout or poster-like figure of a seated man in orange and gold ceremonial dress, with a turban, garlands and a rudraksha-style necklace, is placed on a pink-draped bench; this figure is a depiction, not a physical person. In the foreground, a man in a rust-red dhoti and shawl stands behind a small table draped in white, holding a brass plate with a lamp and offerings. Behind him, a second person in orange robes stands with hands pressed together in prayer. A woman in a pink sari stands at the gate on the left.
