A photograph in a bright, white-walled hall with a polished marble floor and barred windows. A man in a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl, with long swept-back dark hair, a large gold-toned ceremonial necklace and a tilak on his forehead, gestures with one hand while walking. Beside him an older man with grey hair wears a white shirt and white dhoti with a gold border, a rudraksha mala and an ID badge, moving with raised hand. Several men in white kurta-dhotis with ID badges, one in an orange cloth, walk behind, and a man in a green checked shirt stands at the left edge. The saffron-clad figure has distinctive long hair, a gold ceremonial necklace and saffron robes, so an appearance-based candidate for a person is present but the identification is uncertain.2009-08-16Indoor photo of a hall with pillars and fluorescent lights where a long-haired man in an orange saffron robe with a red bindi and a rudraksha mala walks forward smiling, his arms relaxed at his sides.
