The wearer's forearm and upper body are in an orange saffron robe, and a strand of brown rudraksha beads with a metal pendant hangs at the left. The background is a plain pale grey wall.2011-09-01A bald man with a white horizontal tilak across his forehead, a red dot between his brows, and thin-rimmed glasses holds a small lit oil lamp toward the camera with one hand. He wears layered rudraksha malas, a gold bangle, a dangling earring, and orange-saffron cloth over a red garment. Behind him, seated devotees in red and white clothing hold lit lamps, and a red carpet and floor cushions fill the hall during a puja or aarti.2013-09-25A close photograph of an open palm held out, with a small red gemstone or bead resting in the centre of the palm.

The background is plain white and pale grey. Only partial hands are visible, so no whole person is shown.2011-09-03 +1 copiesSeptember 04 20112011-09-04 +1 copiesA photograph of a bald man in a saffron-orange robe seated in front of a row of devotees in maroon garments holding small oil lamps. The central man wears a white vertical forehead mark with a red bindi, round-rimmed glasses, a long orange-brown rudraksha mala draped over his shoulders, a gold-toned pendant, hoop earrings, a gold bangle and a dark wristwatch, and his forearms bear white painted markings. He holds a small lit lamp in one hand and a shallow metal vessel in the other while speaking. Blurred devotees in maroon robes with lamps occupy the background. Appearance-based identification is probable: a person is seated centrally, performing a lamp ritual with cues including the rudraksha malas and saffron clothing.2013-06-12September 01 20112011-09-01A close profile photograph of a shaved-headed man with closed eyes, wearing an orange-red kurta with a small collar and a yellow-and-black rudraksha mala draped around his neck. His right hand holds the beads near his throat, and a small red bindi marks his forehead. Blurred seated figures in the background suggest an indoor gathering with a warm red-toned setting.2009-12-10September 26 20132013-09-26
