Photograph in profile of a person seated on a golden throne beside a tall golden trident-like staff, against a deep red backdrop. The person has long dark dreadlocked hair topped with a silver crescent ornament, wears a rust-red garment over one shoulder, and a thick garland of red, yellow and white flowers with rudraksha beads, plus gold bangles and earrings. A gold lion-shaped throne arm is visible in the lower frame. The person smiles toward the staff. Per the page, this is a pratyaksha padapuja darshan at a Vaicharik Mahasabha event in Ujjain. Appearance-based identification is probable: the crescent, dreadlocks, garland and ceremonial gold cues fit the page's claim, so a person is the seated figure.
