Red neon-like swastika motifs glow on the upper sides. Blurred dark silhouettes of heads and shoulders of a crowd fill the lower foreground. No individual person is clearly identifiable, and the image is out of focus.2006-12-04February 17 20152015-02-17 +1 copiesFebruary 07 20172017-02-07 +2 copiesNight photograph of a crowd walking past a brightly illuminated gopuram of a South Indian temple at Tiruvannamalai, its tiered tower outlined with strings of white and coloured lights. Devotees in white dhotis and shirts and a woman in a saffron-orange shawl move through the foreground, with a strong glare from a street lamp on the right. Festival decorations of lights and bunting frame the temple entrance and a lit pavilion on the left. Faces are mostly turned away or indistinct, and no one can be clearly picked out as a person.2006-12-04Night photograph of a crowd gathered before an illuminated temple gopuram at a festival. Strings of white and coloured lights outline the tiered tower, and a bright floodlight glows at upper right. In the foreground, a man in an orange garment faces away from the camera, with other devotees and onlookers around him. To the right, a decorated ceremonial structure hung with coloured bunting and lights stands beside the gateway. No individual's face or role as a presiding figure is clearly visible, so the appearance of a person cannot be confirmed.2006-12-04February 17 20162016-02-17 +1 copies
