Close-up of a figure wrapped in orange saffron cloth, with an orange turban-like folded fabric and a wooden stick resting on a dark tray. Strands of white jasmine, red and maroon flowers and yellow marigold garlands lie over the orange garments, surrounded by scattered white and pink petals. The figure appears to be a statue or effigy rather than a living person, and it is not clearly identifiable.

A close photograph of a folded saffron-orange cloth covering an object placed on a grey stone platform, surrounded by red and white rose petals and flower garlands. Red and white petals are scattered along the front edge, with a wooden stick lying beside the cloth.

Gold ornamental necklace beads hang at the left. The hand, with fingers resting near the garland, is partly visible. Behind is a red cushioned seat decorated with yellow, red and purple flower arrangements, and a microphone stand appears at the upper right. Only part of the person is visible, so no face or identity is shown. The figure's presentation is partially visible, with saffron robes and gold necklace cues, but the frame does not show enough to confirm identity.2010-12-27July 03 20122012-07-03 +1 copiesClose-up photograph of a seated person in orange robes resting one hand on a red cushioned armrest.

Yellow marigold flowers and a single magenta blossom sit beside a folded white and red cloth with orange twisted cord handles, similar to a carrying sling or bag. Orange satin fabric drapes across the frame, and a gold tassel fringe lies at the bottom. Blurred metal lamps or vessels appear in the background. No people are visible.2010-11-06Close-up of a pair of bare feet resting on a gold-patterned silk cushion placed on a brass plate, decorated with yellow marigold garlands and white flowers. The feet belong to a person wearing a saffron-orange robe that drapes over the right side of the frame. Two small gold kalasha-style vessels with red flower accents sit between the toes and the cushion, and red tasselled fabric hangs around the edges. The orange cloth beneath the scene suggests an outdoor ritual setting. This appears to be a padapuja, the ritual washing or worship of feet, with the person receiving the offering. Only the feet and robe are visible, so the person's face is not shown.2010-07-24Close-up photograph of a bare foot in the foreground, resting on a heap of loose flower garlands and petals of yellow marigolds, pink and red blossoms, and white jasmine strands. The foot belongs to a figure wearing orange-saffron robes, whose fabric fills the upper frame. Scattered petals and a few small white flower pieces lie on the foot and robe. A dark wooden edge is visible at the lower left. No face is visible, and no one can be identified from the frame.2007-12-25March 03 20112011-03-03April 22 20162016-04-22A close photograph of a seated figure on a red cushioned throne-like chair, draped in orange saffron cloth. A bare hand rests on the red armrest beside an orange towel. Behind the arm, a garland of red roses and dark rudraksha-style beads hangs over the orange garment. A gilded, ornately carved wooden box with red panels sits at right, and a microphone stand is visible at left. Only the hand, arm and torso are visible, with no face shown. The a person candidate is not clearly identifiable from appearance, so the role is described as a seated figure on a throne.2010-08-26Close-up photograph of a seated man in orange saffron robes, his hand resting on a folded orange towel placed on a red textured cushion. Beside him is a large garland of white roses and pink roses with green leaves draped across his lap. Only his arm, hand, lap and the garland are visible, with no face shown. The scene suggests a devotional gathering.2010-09-02 +1 copiesA seated man in an orange-saffron shawl and matching orange turban sits cross-legged on a patterned carpet, eyes lowered and smiling. He wears a long rudraksha-style bead mala with gold ornaments, layered garlands of marigolds, white jasmine and red roses, and gold rings on several fingers, with his hands resting on his knees. Around him stand several people in orange and saffron robes, some with bare feet, one holding a silver staff at the left edge. The man's face and clothing cues, including the saffron turban and shawl, match the page's Swamiji reference, so this is a probable Swamiji (probable) seated in a devotional setting.2013-02-12
