Outdoor photograph of a sandy ground with a white chalk line, where a group of young men and women in white and saffron-orange clothing stand and walk in a spirited activity, some barefoot, under coconut palms and a corrugated shade canopy with an orange flag. Several in orange tops and white dhotis stand near the line while onlookers in white shirts and dhotis watch from the sides, and a figure in a dark shirt stands at left. No clearly identifiable a person candidate is visible, so the figures are described by role and clothing only.
