A central man with long dark hair, a red bindi and gold earrings waves his right hand and smiles, wearing an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, a long white flower garland with blue beads, and a heavy gold and rudraksha necklace. Around him, shaven-headed men in saffron-orange robes wear gold chains and rudraksha malas, while white-clad devotees in white dhotis and shawls walk nearby. Banana plants and trees appear in the background.2012-07-03Outdoor gathering at a large open ground under a grey sky, with a striped tent and trees behind. A central figure with long dark hair wears an orange-saffron robe with a gold-edged shawl and a heavy garland of golden-yellow beads, raising one hand in greeting while a crowd reaches up with raised palms. Around him, men in orange and saffron robes with rudraksha malas stand beside a man in a white shirt and black trousers with an ID lanyard, and a man in a white shirt and saffron shawl with a rudraksha mala on the lower right. The central figure has distinctive long hair, a shawl, and ornate gold-bead garland, consistent with the page's Swamiji label, so this is a probable identification from appearance cues. Many people are visible, including partially cropped figures at the edges.2010-12-29Outdoor crowd scene at a festival grounds.
