A photograph of a devotee receiving blessing at a darshan-style encounter at night. A bare-chested figure with swept-back dark hair, a gold ornate necklace and a rust-red shawl leans forward, raising both hands to the forehead of a man with grey hair who wears a white shirt and a red lanyard with a badge. The seated figure sits beside an ornate golden throne carving, smiling. Other people stand blurred at the right edge. The seated figure's clothing and cues are consistent with the a person candidate; the scene shows a blessing gesture of hands raised toward the devotee's head.
