Wide view across a river toward a riverbank festival camp under hazy grey sky. A steel truss bridge spans the background. On the bank stand white and pastel tents, a pink banner reading 'HARE KRISHNA' in part, and an orange multi-domed temple-like structure with an orange flag on a pole. Many small groups of people gather along the shoreline near moored wooden boats. Foreground is calm water. No identifiable individual is clearly visible at this distance.

A small red and orange shrine tower with a flag stands on the far bank, flanked by white tents, pink and orange canopies and distant pavilions. A long steel railway bridge spans the background. In the river, two bathers are partly visible, one bending near the water's edge. A bamboo pole and wire line stand in the foreground. The figures on the bank are too small and distant to count reliably.2013-02-07February 10 20132013-02-10Aerial view of a dense crowd at the Kumbh Mela camp grounds in Allahabad, with thousands of pilgrims walking between rows of white, blue and orange tents and temporary stalls.

Several small figures in dark and white clothing stand in the shallow water and on a sandbar at right, and a crowd of pilgrims walks across a long pontoon bridge spanning the river. A steel truss railway bridge with concrete piers crosses the top of the frame, and a few colourful tarpaulins in green, blue and red shade some tents. Pilgrims in the foreground move among the tents. No identifiable a person figure is visible, and the scene shows a riverside camp rather than a specific ritual.2013-02-10February 10 20132013-02-10February 10 20132013-02-10February 10 20132013-02-10Elevated view of a dense, hazy tent city at the Allahabad Kumbh Mela, with rows of white, beige and striped canvas tents spread across dusty ground.
