Outdoor photograph in a rural field with palm trees and a small white building behind. In the foreground, a tall grey tree trunk is at left. A man with long dark swept-back hair wears a saffron-orange wrap over his body and walks forward, with a calm expression. The appearance cues match the probable Swamiji profile (long hair, orange clothing), so he is labelled Swamiji (probable) in this description. Behind him, a line of devotees in white dhoti and shirt, several with orange shawls, follows. One wears a white ID lanyard. A man in a light blue checked shirt and a white-shirted man stand to the right, and a small child in yellow appears at lower right.2006-09-23A photograph of a group walking outdoors on grass beside palm trees and a whitewashed wall under a blue sky with clouds.

Beside and behind him, several men in white dhotis and white shirts wear orange shawls, and others wear light shirts and lungis. A young boy in a checked shirt walks among them. A large palm trunk fills the right foreground. Probable Swamiji is the saffron-robed figure with long hair, in the group's walk; appearance cues are long swept hair and saffron robes, so identity is probable but not certain.2006-09-23Outdoor photo of a festive crowd on sandy ground beneath tall coconut palms and blue sky.
