A photograph of a man in a rust-brown sannyasi cloth wrapped over a yellow-gold waistcloth, stepping out of a dark SUV beside an open door. He wears a long garland of white jasmine with red flowers and a gold-bead necklace, with rudraksha beads visible at his chest. He smiles and looks down. Beside him a woman in an orange sari bends forward, and at the right edge a person in orange holds a tall wooden staff. Behind the vehicle a palm tree and a light building appear. a person is described by his brown robe, long swept hair, garland and gold necklace, and he appears to be arriving from a trip.

A photograph of a man in saffron-orange robes with long dark hair stepping from a dark SUV while a woman in an orange sari with a gold border places a white and red flower garland around his neck. He wears a rudraksha mala and has a gold-colored belt-like wrap at his waist. Behind them, a man in orange robes holds a tall wooden pole, and a silver tray of flowers and green leaves sits at the lower right. Swamiji (probable) appears to be the man receiving the garland, based on long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala cues.

A night photograph at a car window. A bare-chested man with swept-back dark hair, wearing a white garland with pink and red flowers and a red-and-gold cloth, leans into the open car door and touches his forehead. A saffron-robed attendant with a shaved head and rudraksha mala stands at right holding a long wooden staff. Colourful string lights hang in the trees behind, and a tripod-like figure with the fabric of another devotee appears at lower centre. Two physical people are clearly visible plus one partially visible hand. The man's appearance has several cues but no distinct face-based identity is assumed; he is described by role only. a person cues are not sufficient on appearance alone, so the identity is left unsure.

A person in a maroon-red turban and reddish-brown dhoti with gold-bordered drape stands beside an open dark vehicle door, lifting a long garland of red and pink flower petals over their own head. Heavy gold ornaments, a gold necklace and bangles are worn. Beside them, a man in white dhoti with saffron-orange shawl and gold necklaces holds a brass plate with a red flower, while another attendant in white with gold border and a rudraksha-style mala assists.
