In the foreground a person in a brown-red robe holds up a long garland of red, yellow, orange and white flowers, with a brass tray of petals and flowers below. Behind them, several people in white dhotis and shawls stand holding large red, orange, pink and green ornate umbrellas. A shirtless man with a sacred thread and beaded necklaces holds an orange umbrella, and white-clad devotees stand in the background under a tin roof beside red brick walls and trees.2017-08-15December 02 20172017-12-02December 15 20162016-12-15December 14 20162016-12-14August 16 20172017-08-16December 12 20162016-12-12Outdoor evening procession at a temple-style event under a canopy of colourful tassels and a golden-topped pole. A bearded man in a saffron-orange robe and a pink-and-white floral garland walks at the centre, hands raised in a gesture, a white tilak on his forehead; a figure with long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala and ornate clothing walks close to him (Swamiji (probable) cues: long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala). Around them devotees in white dhotis with saffron borders, ash and sandal marks, and rudraksha malas carry a large silver trishul and hold palms together in namaskar; a drummer in white stands at left. Women in saris and salwar kameez, and older men with folded hands, watch from the sides, and a girl holds a yellow flower bundle.2016-12-15October 01 20172017-10-01
