Outdoor photo at a South Indian temple courtyard with a tall white gopuram tower behind a pillared hall. A man with long swept-back dark hair and a red tilak wears a sleeveless saffron-orange robe and a heavy gold bead necklace, walking barefoot with his hands raised in gesture. Robed orange-clad followers with white tilaks walk alongside him, and a man in a white kurta and dhoti with a yellow shawl walks in front on the right. Stone bull figures sit on the roof edge, and a police officer stands at the right. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron robe and gold necklace match the page's Swamiji-present flag, though appearance is only a cue. About 10 people are visible.
