A woman with blonde hair pulled back in a ponytail stands barefoot in a white kurta and white loose trousers, with a turquoise shawl draped over her shoulders. She leans into a dense cluster of banyan tree trunks and presses her palm against the bark, her head bowed. Sunlight falls across the grey, lichen-spotted trunks and hanging aerial roots. The photo appears to be a candid shot taken from behind. No a person candidate is visible.
