From the photographer:

I was quite surprised to find a group of Sikhs (?) using this public spot as a place of worship. But in the serenity of the morning, it seemed entirely appropriate.

I don’t think prayer always has to happen in such serene places, but it’s a blessing to participants and to bystanders when it does.
