Night-time photo of a seated figure in an orange-saffron garment with a rudraksha-style beaded necklace and gold earrings, bare-shouldered, receiving a child in a white shirt with a beaded mala, who holds out a small yellow card or envelope. A woman in white with a rust-coloured beaded shawl stands at right beside the child, and a blue cloth screen and gold ornamental object appear in the foreground. Other devotees in white garments stand behind in the background.

A seated man in an orange-saffron robe with a rudraksha mala and a white horizontal forehead mark places his hand on the head of a young boy in white kurta. He holds a small object in his other hand, and a gilded ornate pedestal or throne sits in front of him. Beside the boy stands a woman in a white sari with an orange rudraksha necklace, holding a white cloth and a folded yellow card. A blue cloth backdrop and a few white chairs appear behind, with people visible at the edges of the frame.

Night-time photograph at an outdoor programme. A figure in an orange-saffron garment with a pale yellow border, wearing a coral-bead necklace, gold earrings and a gold bangle, sits on the left, extending his hands to pass an item to a woman in a white embroidered sari with a red bead necklace and a thin gold chain, who bends forward with hands cupped to receive it. Behind them, a blue and maroon cloth is draped as a backdrop, and a few people in white and coloured clothing stand watching. A large gold-coloured decorative object is in the foreground, and a standing fan is visible at left. A yellow pamphlet is held near the bottom right. The figure on the left shows a person cues: orange robes, a coral mala and ceremonial gold adornment, seated in a presiding role.

A seated man in an orange-red unstitched cloth, wearing a long rudraksha mala and his hair tied up in a knot, rests his right hand on the head of a young boy in white shirt who kneels with palms joined. Beside them, a woman in a pink-and-white sari kneels with hands folded, and another woman in white with a rudraksha mala sits watching. A silver staff with a decorative top stands behind the seated man, and a gold-coloured ceremonial object sits in the lower foreground on red fabric. Several women in saris, one in blue and one in orange-pink, stand in the background of a hall with cream walls and a dark red curtain. The seated man has distinctive visible cues of orange clothing and rudraksha malas, so this may be a person giving blessing to a devotee, though the image is not clear enough for certainty.

A photograph of a seated man in rust-red robes and a tiger-striped shawl on a red cushioned seat beside an ornate gold throne. He wears a rudraksha mala with large beads, a white vertical tilak on his forehead, and extends his hand to a kneeling devotee in a white shirt who holds a small paper and a yellow object. Behind them a woman in white with a rudraksha mala and orange-red garland stands holding a green cloth. The man is an appearance-based a person candidate, with a red-robed, rudraksha-adorned presentation consistent with the page, though his identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.

Night-time photograph of a seated man in saffron-orange robes with a beaded rudraksha-style mala and white vertical forehead marks, sitting on a red cushioned seat behind a large gold ornate object. He extends his hand toward a woman in the right foreground, who wears an orange top, a white shawl and a small red-and-white bindi-style marking, and who reaches toward him. Behind them, other devotees in orange and white attire stand under a blue and red draped cloth, with a fan and a red cushioned seat visible at left. The setting is an evening ceremony with people moving around the enclosure.
