Night photo at a Kumbh Mela-style gathering beside an illuminated, multi-tiered shrine structure with string lights. A man in a maroon turban topped with a gold crescent ornament, layered gold necklaces, gold bangles and a maroon-red garment stands with palms pressed together in namaste, smiling. Around him, saffron-robed sadhus with white beards, a man in pink robes with a rudraksha mala, a bearded man in orange, and a uniformed police officer in khaki and a blue lanyard watch and interact. The people appear to be greeting one another in a crowded outdoor setting, with bright lights and a dark sky above.
