A photograph of a seated man with long dark hair and a red bindi, dressed in an orange-saffron wrap over a red top, smiling with palms open on his lap. He sits on a zebra-print throne-like chair under a silver and blue draped canopy with red and pink flower arrangements at left. In the foreground a devotee in a white kurta bows low and touches the seated man's bare feet. A white ceiling fan and metal scaffolding are visible above, and a red-and-orange carpet covers the floor. A second person in orange clothing sits partly visible at the right edge. The seated man may be a person: long swept hair, saffron-orange wrap, and a throne-like seat, with the devotee performing padapuja. The page labels this an October 2008 event, but no event name is legible in the image.
