A crowded outdoor photograph near a temple entrance decorated with marigold garlands in orange and yellow. A bare-chested elderly priest in a red-maroon dhoti and rudraksha mala stands at centre beside a woman in an orange sari. A man in a white dhoti with a gold-bordered shawl holds a microphone, and a younger man in a white shirt stands nearby. Around them, many men in white shirts and dhotis, some in red and orange, press close, with a bare-headed onlooker in the foreground. A sannyasi in orange robes stands among them, and the scene appears to be a ritual gathering or darshan. Tiled walls and a canopy frame the scene.2010-11-22October 23 20062006-10-23December 31 20092009-12-31December 31 20092009-12-31June 24 20142014-06-24A photograph of a temple courtyard with a crowd of men in saffron and orange robes and white dhotis.
