Night photo of a group walking down a dirt path at a construction site lit by floodlights and a distant vehicle. In the foreground, a man with long dark hair and a flowing beard wears an orange saffron robe and walks barefoot, with a rudraksha-style pendant on his chest. Beside him, another man in orange with long hair carries a small object. Behind them, several followers in white dhotis and shirts wear yellow or red shawls and walk in a line. Piles of earth, concrete blocks and a small tin-roofed structure surround the path. Appearance cues for a person figure are his long hair, saffron robe and pendant, though the face is not clearly visible.
