A photograph of an outdoor ritual yard with sandy ground and scattered ash. In the foreground a man with long dark hair tied back sits cross-legged on a low wooden seat, wearing an orange saffron shawl and a dark rudraksha mala, eyes closed, hands resting over a brass kettle-like vessel. Behind him a second man in orange robes sits on the ground, and several people in white clothes with orange or red cloths sit further back amid smoke from a fire. Small green shrubs, a white building with a red door and a tiled roof sit in the background, along with a plastic water bottle and a folded mat.
