Street photograph of a procession on a narrow Indian town road lined with shops, hanging cloth and utility wires. Behind him, devotees in white kurtas and dhotis walk in the yatra, including a man in a white cap and white shawl, a woman in a maroon sari, and a man carrying a large brass kalasha-style vessel on his shoulder. Motorbikes are parked at left and a yellow sign is visible on a building.

A man with long, swept-back dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead stands outdoors in a crowd, holding a silver trident adorned with a white beaded mala. He wears an orange hooded jacket with a matching orange shawl, gold beaded necklaces, and orange-brown dhoti-style trousers. Behind him, orange pennants fly from a pole against a pale sky, with buildings and onlookers in white and orange saris and white kurtas visible. Probable Swamiji by visible cues: long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha-style beaded mala and gold ornaments, holding a trident in a procession setting.

Outdoor photograph of a street procession in a town setting. In the centre, a man with long dark hair and a red bindi wears a loose saffron-orange robe wrapped over one shoulder and walks beside a long wooden pole. Behind him, a man in white with an orange scarf holds a folded orange cloth, and a man in white shirt wears a dark rudraksha mala. Several participants in white clothing walk along, and some hold placards with photographs of a saffron-clad figure and printed Tamil text. A yellow and red ornamental canopy with floral embroidery appears at the upper left, and a multi-storey building stands in the background.

A street procession in a Tamil town. In the centre, a smiling man wears an orange turban with a jewelled brooch, long swept-back dark hair, an orange shawl, a thick multi-strand garland of red flowers and gold beads, a gold necklace and gold armlets. Beside him, a shaved-headed man in white dhoti with a gold-bordered shawl and a gold chain holds a tall trident-topped staff, and another man in white with a gold chain and a rudraksha-style mala walks at left carrying a similar staff. Behind them, devotees in orange and maroon saris and orange-clad men follow, with a saffron umbrella bearing a lotus-like emblem, pink buildings, blue tarpaulin stalls and orange flags along the road.

A man in saffron-orange robes walks along a busy riverside promenade, carrying a long silver trident over his left shoulder and wearing a long rudraksha mala with dark beads. He has long, swept-back dark hair and wears sandals. Behind him, a woman in a light blue sari with an orange shawl walks beside a metal railing, and other people in orange and white clothing move through the crowd. Hillside buildings and a temple-like structure with a domed roof rise in the background.

Street scene in a narrow Indian market lane lined with shops. A long-haired man in an orange-saffron dhoti-style wrap, a gold beaded necklace and a sandalwood-marked forehead walks forward holding a trident-topped staff, smiling. Around him, men in white shirts and white caps walk and gesture, one in a white cap wearing an orange shawl, and children and a young person stand nearby. Shops on the right display colourful bangles, beaded garlands, mirrors and metal items, and a red-and-blue painted sign hangs on the left wall.
