A large photograph of a packed indoor convention hall with a seated crowd filling the floor on red carpet, facing a distant stage at the far end. Most attendees are women with long braids wearing saris and salwar in saffron, orange, yellow, green, purple, pink and white, many with flowers in their hair. Several people in the foreground hold or sit beside plastic water bottles. Overhead hang rows of small triangular pennants and white pillars support the tent structure. The stage area has white draping and a red carpeted aisle leading toward it. No identifiable figure on stage is clearly visible at this distance.
