Evening crowd at a riverside ghat in Haridwar at dusk, with a large mass of devotees filling the stone steps and embankment facing the water. Many people in the foreground hold up mobile phones to photograph the scene; a man in a red shirt and a man in a red-and-white turban stand near the front. Lit oil lamps and flames glow on the ghat steps and small shrines, and temple spires with orange and white shrine structures line the bank. Hoardings and shops with signs stand behind the crowd, with a wooded hill beyond. Individual faces are not clearly distinguishable, and no a person candidate is visibly present in this crowd scene.
