A large group photograph on a wet beach at dusk. A central seated figure wears a maroon crown-like turban, a maroon garment and a dark rudraksha mala, sitting barefoot on a low golden-legged chair draped with a patterned cushion. A man in a white dhoti with gold border stands at left, and a man in maroon crouches beside the chair. Around them, many people in white, saffron and orange garments, some in red and purple saris, stand closely together, several wearing lanyards. A man in orange dhoti holds a long staff on the right, and young girls in purple and yellow stand at the far right. The scene reads as a group gathering by the shoreline.
