Photograph of a seaside temple area with a shallow tiled ramp leading down into the sea, metal railings, and pink-painted pillars. In the left foreground a shirtless man with long dreadlocked hair, a vibhuti mark on his forehead and a brown rudraksha mala across his chest, stands with palms pressed together in namaste, eyes closed. Behind him, a crowd of roughly twenty visible devotees stands along the ramp, several in saffron, yellow and green clothes; some are wading waist-deep in the water, one man in a red and white checked lungi steps down the steps, and a woman in a yellow sari stands at the railing. A hand holding a phone enters the lower right corner. Bright daylight, open sky and calm sea.
