A seated man in rust-red saffron robes with long swept-back dark hair, a red tilak on his forehead and a gold necklace, smiles and raises one hand in greeting while his feet rest in a large pink and yellow flower-strewn offering tray. Beside him a woman in white sari with a red-and-gold border and white vibhuti on her forehead stands with palms joined in namaste, smiling. Behind them a man in white with a rudraksha mala and other devotees in white and orange stand under a yellow-railed shelter. Flower petals and marigolds fill the tray. Several people are visible, with the seated robed figure appearing as a probable Swamiji by his long hair, saffron-toned robes and gold necklace.

A photo taken under a curved corrugated shelter with yellow metal railings. A man seated on a concrete ledge wears a rust-red saffron wrap, a gold chain and a red bindi, and has long dark hair falling behind him; his bare feet rest in a red cloth filled with pink flower petals and marigolds, with a red-and-yellow flower offering. A smiling woman in a white sari with a yellow blouse and a red-and-gold border stands with palms joined in namaskar, a white vibhuti marking on her forehead. Around them stand a young woman in glasses and a black top, an older man in a white shirt with a rudraksha mala, and a man in white with a white tilak. Two people in orange-saffron robes stand at the left edge. The seated man is the central figure, appearing to be the a person candidate with long hair, saffron wrap and gold chain, so the identification is probable; the scene reads as a foot-worship (padapuja) honouring at a Pada Yatra stop.2018-01-04January 04 20182018-01-04A photograph inside a yellow-railed metal shelter.
