Outdoor photo on a sandy path lined with tall coconut palms and a row of flags on poles, including national flags. Several saffron-robed monastics walk away from the camera, most with shaved heads, one wearing a red-orange wrap and bare upper body near the centre. Men in white kurtas with orange shawls stand at the right and left edges, and a woman in a yellow sari walks in the middle distance. Parked cars and a white SUV sit behind the group. The swami in the group cannot be confirmed from appearance, so no candidate is named.
