Outdoor photo on a dry, dusty open ground with palm and leafy trees and a multi-storey building behind. In the centre, a man in a saffron-orange robe and matching orange turban, with long hair and rudraksha malas, stands with palms pressed together in namaste, eyes closed and smiling. Three men to the left walk toward him in white ritual clothes with orange shawls; the foremost has a grey-streaked beard and a mala, another wears a dark cap, and a younger shaven-headed man walks barefoot. Behind them, striped canopy tents with white-draped tables and a banner stand along the edge.

Outdoor photo on bare dry ground at an event with tent stalls and palm and leafy trees behind. A figure in orange robes, an orange turban, and a rudraksha mala walks forward with palms pressed together in namaste, wearing sandals, and appears to be Swamiji (probable) based on the orange turban, long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala and saffron robes. Beside and behind him walk two men in white dhoti-style clothing with orange shawls, one with hands folded in prayer and one bearded, carrying a mala. White-clad figures stand in the background near stalls with white tablecloths and a striped awning.

Outdoor photo at a large open ground with floodlight towers and a crowd standing behind barriers. In the foreground, a man in saffron robes and a saffron turban, with a rudraksha mala, stands with palms pressed together in a namaste greeting and smiles. Beside him, a long-haired man in saffron robes with a bare upper body walks while holding a marigold garland with orange and red flowers. Around them, men in white shirts and a uniformed police officer move through the group, and women in white saris stand in the background. A green cloth mat lies on the sand to the right.

Three men walk along a paved path lined with green trees and a low hedge, with a multi-storey building and a crowd dressed in white behind them under an overcast sky. The man in the centre wears a saffron-orange turban, saffron-orange wrap and sandals, with long dark hair falling past his shoulders and a smile. The man on the left has a beard and wears a saffron shawl over white clothes. The man on the right wears a white kurta with a saffron shawl and a rudraksha mala.

A photograph of three men walking barefoot across a flat, dry, reddish-brown open field under a hazy sky, with a line of green trees and a chain-link fence behind them. In the centre, a man with long, swept-back dark hair wears a saffron-orange robe and a long orange shawl, with a rudraksha mala around his neck, and his hands are folded at his chest. On his left, a man in white clothes with an orange shawl walks slightly behind him, and on the right a man in white dhoti and kurta with an orange shawl stands with his hands clasped. Their clothing and folded hands suggest a walking procession or ceremonial walk, and the page describes it as day two of a programme in Salem, Tamil Nadu.

Photo of five men walking barefoot across a flat sandy open ground in morning haze, with a thatched-roof structure and small potted plants at left. At left a man in a white kurta and white pants walks with hands pressed together. Centre, a smiling man in a plain saffron-orange robe wears a long necklace of gold-toned beads and carries a kashaya-style wrap. Beside him a bald man in a white kurta and white dhoti with an orange shawl and a grey shoulder bag crosses his arms. At right, two men in orange robes walk, one holding a mobile phone to his ear and wearing a rudraksha mala, the other in orange with a large beaded necklace and pendant. Background shows trees and hills.
