A dark night scene outdoors on a dirt ground beside a metal fence. A cluster of about a dozen people gathers under dim light. In the foreground a man in a checked short-sleeved shirt faces the camera. Behind him a man in a white shirt and light trousers stands with his hand raised, near a boy in a red t-shirt. Another man in a white shirt and dark jeans stands at right holding something. Scattered figures in white and blue clothing stand around. No saffron robes, crown or ceremonial adornment are visible, so no a person candidate is evident.
