A photograph of a bare-footed man in saffron-orange robes standing inside a white-stone circled plot at the base of a large tree supported by wooden poles. He wears a long rudraksha mala around his neck and bangles on his wrist, and his right hand touches his forehead near a red tilak. Behind him is a black stone deity murti garlanded with yellow and orange flowers, set on a red and white painted base inscribed with Tamil lettering, beside an arched stone niche. The setting is a sandy temple-grounds courtyard with green trees and a white tent in the background. The man appears to be a Swamiji (probable) by his long swept-back hair, saffron robes and multiple rudraksha malas.
