Photograph of a courtyard with a long pink colonnade of orange-and-white pillars behind a walking group. Six people walk across the paved court toward the left; one in a white dhoti and shirt leads, another in white at far left, and the others wear saffron orange robes, one with a beaded necklace. A small domed pavilion and a rocky hill rise in the background under a pale blue sky. Carved stone figures and kalasha-like finials sit atop the roofline.

Two men in saffron-orange robes walk on the left, one with long dark hair and one with his hands folded near his chest. A man in a white kurta and white trousers with a lanyard walks in the centre with palms joined. A bearded older man in a maroon-brown wrap and dhoti walks beside him. On the right, a long-haired figure in orange robes and a rudraksha-style necklace walks alongside another in orange with hands clasped.

Several men in white dhoti and shirt and women in white saris lead the group, with a line of saffron-robed sannyasis in orange cloth walking in the middle; one shaven-headed monk is bare-chested with an orange wrap. Stone bull-like figures sit atop the wall, and a hill and temple gopuram appear at left. A visible figure in orange with a bare upper body stands out in the centre; the appearance-based cues for a person candidate are not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so this is unsure.2011-09-09A photograph of four people walking in single file across a paved courtyard beside a long colonnade of orange and white pillars under a yellow-and-red wall topped with small stone figures and sculpted animals. The figure on the left wears a saffron-orange robe and walks barefoot, the man in the middle wears a white kurta and white dhoti with hands joined, the woman second from right wears an orange sari with a marigold garland, and the person at far right wears an orange robe. A white chalk kolam design is drawn on the floor, and a hill rises in the background.2010-01-18 +1 copiesFour people walk barefoot across a paved courtyard beside a long arcade with orange and white painted pillars and weathered brick walls.
