A photograph of a man in a cream-coloured kurta standing close to the thick, buttressed trunk of a large tree, with his face pressed against the bark and his right hand resting on it. He wears a black head wrap, wire-rimmed glasses, a long orange-red rudraksha mala draped over his shoulders, and a beaded bracelet on his wrist. The tree's exposed roots and aerial prop roots fill the right side of the frame, and a sunlit dirt path with a red wall lies behind him.
