Photograph of seated saffron-robed sannyasis in front of a draped red and orange striped cloth backdrop at a camp. In the centre, a clean-shaven man in an orange shawl and matching orange garment sits cross-legged with his hands out of frame, looking to his left. To his right, an elderly bearded sadhu in a light peach-orange turban, shawl and garment, with rudraksha beads around his neck and red and white bangles on his wrists, sits with his hands folded in his lap. A partially visible figure in orange sits at the far left edge. Setting suggests a satsang or shivir gathering. No identity claim is made from appearance.
