He looks downward with eyes lowered during a ritual setting. Behind him at right, a woman with wavy light-brown hair and a white sari with green border and orange scarf holds pink flowers. A golden carved chair or throne is blurred at left against an orange wall.2010-10-30A photograph of a man in a white dhoti and shawl with red-and-gold border walking along a covered temple walkway, raising one hand in greeting. He wears a gold necklace with beads, bangles and an armlet, and has a white tripundra with a red mark on his forehead. Behind him, a woman in an orange sari with a dark head covering and a man in orange robes walk nearby. Orange and red walls, a red railing and hanging orange tassels frame the scene, with stone sculptures visible in the background.2011-12-31Outdoor procession scene. A smiling man with long dark hair swept back and a red bindi wears a deep red-orange robe over one shoulder, a thick rudraksha mala and a gold ceremonial pendant necklace, and holds a silver trident-tipped staff. Behind him a second man in red-orange holds a red fringed umbrella and silver staff. To the left an older woman in white with glasses and a white shawl stands among attendees, some in orange and red, under a thatched roof structure and trees.

Six men in orange dhotis and shawls with red borders wear large beaded necklaces with gold pendants, and several wear rudraksha-style beads. Women on the left wear orange and red saris with matching blouses and beaded necklaces. Behind them, ornate multicoloured umbrellas with fringed edges and decorated canopies are raised, and a tree and a covered walkway appear in the background. The scene reads as a ritual welcome or procession at an ashram.2008-12-27September 26 20162016-09-26A photograph of a procession in an outdoor temple setting.
