Outdoor photo on a bare sandy ground under a small tree. A long-haired man in an orange saffron shawl and orange clothing, with a red-and-orange flower garland and a rudraksha mala, smiles and gestures with one hand as a crowd presses around him. Around him, many men wear white shirts and white dhotis, some with orange shawls, and a man in a blue-and-white checked shirt wears a rudraksha mala. A man in white in the background films with a camera; others stand watching near a small table. A person in dark clothing bends low in the foreground.

A photograph of a procession on a dirt path beside a chain-link fence, with orange flags visible behind.
