A photograph taken outdoors in the evening at dusk. A long-haired man in saffron-orange robes with a red-and-gold trim sits on a raised pink platform, wearing a long red and white flower garland and a white tilak on his forehead, one hand raised to his chin while he gazes upward. Two shaved-headed young boys in orange robes sit beside him; the smaller one has a red bindi and beaded necklace, and the older one holds the man's hand. Behind them stands a golden deity murti framed by yellow flower garlands, atop a pink pedestal with floral offerings. Palm trees and a dark blue evening sky form the backdrop.
