Outdoors on a pale stone terrace under a clear blue sky, a bare-chested older man in gold-rimmed sunglasses, a gold-bead necklace and a white silk dhoti with red and gold border stands clasping his hands and talking with a long-haired figure in a saffron-orange turban and flowing saffron robes. The saffron-clad figure has long dark hair, a saffron turban and a saffron wrap over the shoulder. Beside them a man in a white dhoti and saffron shawl stands with arms folded, and a man in a cream shirt smiles. Behind them a stone shrine dome with a finial stands among a crowd of onlookers, and a saffron-robed man carries a woven basket on the right edge.2008-02-18February 18 20082008-02-18A smiling man in a saffron-orange turban and matching orange robes stands indoors beside a white-clad priest.

To the left, a priest in a white dhoti with green-and-gold border and tilak holds a brass pot with yellow flowers and a tray with offerings.

The man on the left wears an orange saffron robe with a red border, a gold bead necklace, a white tilak on his forehead and a red dot, and holds a brass kalasha-style vessel wrapped in a red and white flower garland with feathers on top. The man on the right wears a white dhoti with a red and gold border, a rudraksha-style dark bead mala, a red bindi, and has long reddish hair tied back; he stands barefoot with arms folded, both men smiling. The left man's appearance is consistent with a sannyasi in saffron, but his identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.2009-03-29Photograph inside a temple hall with grey stone pillars and marigold garlands strung overhead, with bamboo scaffolding at upper left.
