Night photograph of an outdoor stage canopy decorated with strings of green, yellow and blue prayer-flag style bunting over a blue diamond-patterned backdrop. Beneath a white umbrella-like canopy, a central figure in an orange-saffron robe with long dark hair stands on a raised platform. Around the platform, a crowd of devotees in white clothes, many women in white saris and men in white shirts, stand behind a low bamboo rail, some holding up their hands in greeting. Bright white lights and a few air-conditioning units are visible at the sides, and dark silhouettes of heads appear in the foreground.
