Outdoor photograph of a group on dry leaves beneath a leafy tree beside a white building. A long-haired man in orange saffron robes with a large rudraksha mala and a pair of binoculars in his hand stands barefoot on a stone, speaking with a woman in an orange sari and rudraksha beads who has a dark bag on her shoulder. To the right, a man in white dhoti and shirt with a gold border and a laptop in hand, and a man in an all-white shirt and trousers, stand listening. Behind them, people in cream and white saris and shirts watch. Sandals lie on the ground at the bottom edge. Appearance cues of the long-haired man in saffron with rudraksha beads are distinctive, so he is a probable candidate.
