Outdoor courtyard photo of a crowd of devotees gathered in front of a white multi-storey building with wooden shuttered windows. On the left, a carved wooden balcony with green pillars. A man in a striped shirt and grey trousers stands centre with both hands raised above his head in a namaskar-like gesture, while men in white dhotis and shirts stand around him and a drummer in white with an orange shawl plays a drum. A woman in a red sari stands among other women in saris at the back. Bicycles and motorcycles are parked beside a low wall. A golden deity figure with garlands is partly visible at the right edge, and a floral garland hangs on it. A kalasha-style gold object is visible near the right edge.

Photograph of a group of men and women standing on a paved brick path outside a pink temple complex with domed towers and a wrought-iron gate. Most men wear white shirts and white dhotis; a man in the centre wears a blue shirt and white dhoti and holds a plastic bag. A younger man in a white kurta and white dhoti wears an orange-saffron shawl and holds a bouquet of flowers. On the right, a man in a white shirt and white dhoti holds a clipboard and a microphone. Women in saris of purple, red and pink stand among them. Palm trees and greenery surround the courtyard.

Outdoor street scene on a tree-lined road with a bus and motorbikes passing in the background. A crowd of devotees stands along the roadside, mostly men in white dhotis and shirts and women in saris in red, orange, green and pink. A man in a white shirt holds a camera. In the centre, a bare-chested elderly man in a white dhoti stands with palms folded in front of a small girl in white and red. A woman in a red sari raises her hand in greeting near a figure in orange. Nothing in the scene visibly identifies a person, so no candidate is marked.

A photograph of a courtyard outside a white two-storey building with a tiled roof, a green leaf festoon along the upper balcony and a banana plant at right. A crowd of about twenty-five women in saris and a few men stand in an orderly line on a paved courtyard beside a large tree. Many women wear green, teal, purple and orange saris; a man at lower left wears a checked shirt, and an older man at right wears a white dhoti and shirt and holds a small tray of flowers. Inside the open doorway, a figure in white stands among others. A small sign hangs at the upper right of the building.

A crowd of devotees queues along a cobblestone path through a landscaped garden at an Indian ashram, with green shrubs and palms on the left and a terracotta-tiled covered walkway on the right. Many women wear white sarees and white salwar kameez, a woman in an orange sari stands in the line, and another wears a lavender floral sari. Men wear white kurtas and white dhotis or trousers. A few onlookers in grey and blue shirts stand under the covered area near a counter.

A street scene outside a grey-walled compound with a wooden gate and white pillars under green trees. On the left, a man with long grey hair wears a white kurta and white dhoti and gestures toward a line of women in cream and white sarees with thin gold borders, some with red or pink borders and hair in braids. The women stand on a curb, one holding a folded paper. Passersby in everyday clothes walk along the pavement, and a cactus grows beyond the wall. A second man in a white shirt stands at right with a camera.

A photograph of devotees queuing outdoors in front of a white building with a corrugated tin roof and green-framed barred doors, under leafy trees and potted palms. Many people wear white dhotis and white sarees with orange shawls or orange stoles draped over their shoulders, and one woman in a green blouse and white saree with a grey border stands near the centre. Some carry handbags or bags. The crowd is waiting to enter the shrine room, with no visible figure identifiable as a person.
