Outdoor photo at sunlight angle of a single-storey whitewashed building with a corrugated metal roof and a small upper terrace with railing, set among tall coconut palms and green shrubs. A few people stand on the upper terrace and a group of devotees in white and light clothing stands at the right edge near a red-and-white tent frame. A black speaker stand is in front of the building and a tree trunk fills the right foreground. Sky is pale blue with sun glare.

A photograph of a cream-coloured two-storey building with green trim and a red-tiled roof, set among palm trees and flowering shrubs in a dusty compound. Excavated earth and exposed rebar foundation grids lie in the foreground on the right. On the left, a group walks along a sandy path: a woman in a red sari, a man in an orange dhoti and white shirt, and a man in a long white robe and orange-trimmed garment holding a camera, with others in white and light clothing. Two or three figures stand on the upper balcony in white clothes.

A two-storey pale green building with a flat roof, a small upper room with a railed terrace and a palm tree behind it, shot against a clear blue sky. On the first-floor balcony, a group of people stand along the railing: several women in saris and salwar, a man in a purple shirt at the right, a young boy in a yellow top and other figures in dark or light clothing. Some appear to be bending or reaching over the railing. Painted Kannada lettering is on the balcony front, and power lines cross the scene.

A house entrance decorated for a pada puja, with two tall banana trunks flanking a red, white and green striped canopy strung with mango leaves and a hanging coconut-like bundle. A man in a plain white kurta stands at the left near the gate. In the centre, a woman in an orange-saffron sari with a long braid walks out of the doorway, with a second figure in orange clothing behind her. A white-draped table sits in the doorway, and several onlookers in light clothes stand on the upper balcony and steps. The scene is a daytime street outside a residence.

Outdoor relief camp on bare sandy ground under striped maroon, purple and green canopies. A woman in white sari with orange shawl stands in the centre beside a young man in light blue shirt and white dhoti. Behind them, workers in white, orange and teal saris move among blue barrels and cooking equipment. A large orange banner with a portrait hangs on a white building, and a palm tree is visible. Leafy branches frame the left foreground.

A photograph of a small white house with a red-tiled roof and a red iron gate, set on a dirt-and-concrete forecourt with coconut palms behind. Four women stand at the gate: one in a blue salwar outfit reaching to the gate, two in white saris, and one in a green sari with a white shawl. A man in a white shirt stands under the front porch. A white van is parked inside the compound. Beside the gate hangs a blue banner bearing a photograph of a bearded man in a white head covering and Tamil text. White kolam designs decorate the ground.

Outdoor temple-style courtyard with a red carpet strewn with white flower petals, lined by coconut palms and a leafy arch overhead. A line of women in white, pink, green and turquoise saris stands on both sides, many holding brass and silver pots of flowers and leaves, as if receiving a procession. In the background at left, an older man in white dhoti stands near a figure in saffron-orange robes seated on a chair, and another figure in orange appears further right. A yellow-green boundary wall and a purple gate frame the scene.

Outdoor temple courtyard with palm trees and a white-and-red painted platform at right. A large group of about thirty women stand in rows on a tiled and kolam-decorated stone walkway, hands folded in namaskar or prayer. Most wear white saris or white kurtas, with some in orange, yellow, pink and red saris and orange stoles. Several wear white shawls and one wears a saffron-orange stole. A dark stone deity murti stands at the left edge, with a blue and orange cloth draped above. A white van and a whitewashed wall are visible behind the crowd, and a few men in white stand at the back.
