Photograph inside a large open workshop with a high corrugated roof, fluorescent tubes and fans, shelving and sculpture stock along the walls. Several men in saffron and orange robes walk together across a paved floor. A man in the centre-left wears a rust-red robe with a gold-bordered dhoti, a rudraksha mala and a white tilak, speaking to others. Beside him a man in a white dhoti with gold border and rudraksha malas walks barefoot. A man in orange robes with a green cloth in hand and a gold chain is smiling, and another in a long orange shawl walks at right. A figure in pale pink robes and a man with a beard in the background complete the group, with unfinished stone statues visible near the walls.

A photograph of a group walking through a corrugated-metal shed with wooden posts and a green tarpaulin floor, with cooking pots and steel vessels on the right. In front, a man in a dark red-maroon robe with a long shawl walks beside a woman in a maroon sari with gold necklaces. Next is a man in saffron-orange robes with a long rudraksha mala and a grey beard, carrying an orange cloth. Behind them, men in white dhotis and a saffron-robed man wear gold chains and rudraksha malas; a bare-chested man in a white dhoti with gold border stands at right. Scattered paper litter lies on the floor.

A photograph inside a large open-sided industrial hall with corrugated roof and fluorescent fixtures. In the foreground on the left, a man with glasses and a red-orange rudraksha-style bead garland wears a white dhoti shirt. Beside him, a man in a white shirt and white dhoti has a red-orange bead garland and a tilak. On the right, a man in a maroon-red saffron-trimmed wrap with a heavy gold beaded garland stands by a green-and-pink cart and brass lamps, turning his head to the side. Behind them, a line of people in maroon and white robes with red-brown beaded garlands walks past shelves of brass and bronze ritual objects, including a tall brass lamp in the right foreground. Many devotees fill the background, and a camera operator stands near the back. Several people appear in the scene, with a crowd visible behind them.

Photograph of a group walking across an unfinished brick-and-concrete structure with exposed rebar and open arched walls under daylight. In the centre, a long-haired man in a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl wears a heavy gold-and-beaded garland and a tilak on his forehead; the appearance is consistent with a person, though identity is uncertain. To his left, a shaved-headed young man in orange robes with a rudraksha mala and a child in white holding his hand walk ahead. On the right, a young man in white with an orange shawl and a rudraksha mala carries a long orange-tipped staff, and an older man in white shirt and dhoti walks beside them. Several other people in orange and white follow in the background.

A photograph of a crowd moving through a dim temple corridor toward an arched doorway lit from behind. In the foreground, a smiling man in a saffron-orange robe wears a red headband with a white and red tilak, a rudraksha mala, and a white shawl at the neck. Beside him, an older woman in saffron robes wears a red headband, white forehead markings, and a heavy gold necklace with dark beads. A bald man in saffron robes with a gold-bead necklace stands at the right, and a bearded man in orange shirt and rudraksha beads is at left. A cameraman with a shoulder camera films from the right, and a man in red shirt stands behind him, with white-clad people in the background.

Outdoor photograph at an unfinished brick building site with exposed red brick walls, concrete frames and a sandy courtyard. A bare-chested man with long swept-back dark hair wears a rust-orange dhoti, a gold-and-bead garland and a rudraksha-style necklace, and walks forward between others. Beside him, a man in a white shirt and white dhoti walks with an older man. Other men wear orange and saffron robes and beaded malas, and a woman in orange stands at the right behind a man in a dark green shirt with folded arms. Several people are visible, and the bare-chested figure in the centre has distinctive long hair and gold-and-bead adornment, a person cue, but the identification rests on appearance alone.
