Outdoor photo of three young men in saffron-orange dhotis and shawls with red borders, bare-chested, with white tilak marks on their foreheads and white sandalwood-style markings on their arms. They play long curved golden brass horns (natural trumpets) on a dirt ground in front of dense green trees, with a folded red cloth on the ground. Two bend forward to blow their horns while one stands at the right holding his horn to his mouth. Rudraksha-style beaded necklaces are visible.
