A barefoot man in a draped rust-orange cloth stands on a stone ghat step with his hands raised and clasped above his head, facing left. He has a short beard and white tilak marks on his forehead, and a red-orange cloth hangs from a pole behind him. Behind a wire mesh fence, rows of red stone steps hold seated devotees in orange and white clothing, some with brass lamps and small shivalinga-like stone forms. A woman in white sits to the right. The scene looks like an outdoor riverside ritual gathering.
