November 22 20132013-11-22October 07 20112011-10-07A photograph of a tall ornate copper dhwajastambha, a ritual flagpole, against a pale sky. Its carved, scalloped upper section is hung with small bells and crowned with a finial and a tuft of dried grass. A red flag with a blue emblem flutters from the pole, and an orange cord runs along its length. No people are visible in the frame.2010-01-02 +1 copiesFebruary 17 20142014-02-17Low-angle photo of a tall ornate copper-coloured ceremonial structure against a pale sky. Its top is a tiered, scalloped copper canopy with a fringe of dark fibrous hair near the peak, and a bright orange-red cloth flutters from a pole beside it, held by orange ropes running down the shaft. The lower shaft is a metal column with embossed floral and rope-pattern bands and a square copper base plate. No people are visible in the frame, so the scene reads as an empty ritual or festival pole rather than a gathering.2009-09-29November 22 20132013-11-22Low-angle photograph looking up a tall ribbed metal pole with a wooden top fitting.
