Photograph taken at night on stone steps beside water, with a bright light above and railings at the top right. On the right, an elderly bearded man in a flowing saffron-orange robe and red sandals stands holding a walking stick, with a red tilak on his forehead; his long white beard and robe are the main cues. Beside him, a bald man in rust-brown robes with a gold-bordered cloth and a long beaded mala stands on the steps. Further left, a man in rust-brown robes with gold-trimmed cloth and a rudraksha-style mala gestures toward the older man, while another bald man in a brown robe and beads walks behind, holding papers. Four physical people are visible.

Four people stand together. A bearded elder in a saffron-orange robe holds a long curved wooden staff and gestures while speaking. Beside him, a bald man in a saffron-orange robe and orange shoulder cloth stands with hands pressed together in respect, and another bald man in orange clothing with a shoulder bag leans in to listen. On the right, a standing woman in a rust-brown sari with gold border and a gold-trimmed shawl looks toward the elder. A distant figure in orange stands near the seats. The elder's appearance (long white beard, saffron robe, staff) is a plausible candidate but not certain, so the identity remains uncertain.2013-11-05Night photograph on a dirt ground at an outdoor site, with a bright light in the background and a pile of stones or construction material behind.
