She wears a red and pink headscarf edged with silver bead tassels, draped over a purple shawl, with large silver jhumka earrings, a silver choker with pendants, a dark bead necklace, and a red blouse covered in mirror work and colourful embroidery with small bells. A red dot marks her forehead and a small nose ring is visible. Blurred red and blue bunting and greenery stand in the background. No a person candidate is visible.2006-09-29February 09 20132013-02-09February 06 20132013-02-06A large crowd of devotees, mostly women in colourful saris and headscarves, walks along a dusty road lined with utility poles and power lines. Many carry white cloth bags. Behind them, rows of white tents, pennants and temporary stalls stretch into a hazy sky. A man in a white shirt with an ID badge walks among them, and a man in a yellow shirt stands on the right. The scene suggests a large pilgrimage or festival gathering on an open route.2013-02-07February 15 20132013-02-15Outdoor photo of several women seated on a paved brick ground. In the foreground, an older woman in a yellow blouse and green patterned sari with a red tilak on her forehead sits with her hands clasped. Beside her, a woman in a brown paisley sari over a turquoise blouse sits smiling, with a red dupatta draped over her head. At left, a woman in a pink and yellow shawl sits with a small card. Other women in bright saris, one orange, stand at the upper edge. A green and white bag lies on the ground. No person is identified as a person in the scene.2015-09-15A photograph of an outdoor courtyard near a white van and a tree. A man in the centre wears a deep red turban, a maroon garment with gold-striped borders and an orange-and-yellow marigold garland, with palms pressed together in greeting. A bare-chested man with a red-and-gold wrap stands nearby, and several saffron-robed sadhus with yellow tilak marks and beards surround him. Women in pink, teal and green saris bow with folded hands, and one woman bends low toward the centre figure. A figure in orange stands at the right, and smoke rises from a fire in the background. The person in the centre has long hair and distinctive ornate attire, so this is a probable match for a person, shown being greeted by devotees. Several people are visible.2015-10-03December 20 20182018-12-20Outdoor procession scene with a woman in the foreground wearing a rust-red sari with a gold border, a black beaded mala and a pendant necklace, a white vibhuti line across her forehead, and holding a thick garland of red flowers with yellow marigold accents. Behind her, people in saffron and orange robes carry a large orange ceremonial banner with a painted circular emblem on a pole, and other devotees in red and white stand nearby. The scene appears to be a temple flag-hoisting procession.2016-01-11October 03 20152015-10-03February 07 20132013-02-07
