A night photograph of a group walking along a raised paved path beside a lit solar-panel-like field, with a concrete building illuminated in the background. A bright torch or lamp on the left spills light across the path. Men in white dhotis and shirts walk in front, and several figures in saffron-orange robes follow, one holding a small lit lamp. The tallest figure on the right wears a long orange robe and stands on the path edge, appearing to have long hair, though the figure is distant and partly in shadow. The ground is dark and the sky is black.
