A central man wears an orange turban, a red and white flower garland, gold necklaces and orange cloth, and stands beneath a large yellow canopy with multicoloured fringe carried on a long pole. Around him, many shaved-headed young men in saffron-orange dhotis and rudraksha malas carry brass plates of flowers and offerings. Pale yellow structures and red-and-gold decorations appear in the background. A blue ceremonial strip runs along the path.2018-12-22 +1 copiesOutdoor procession on a dirt path with palm and leafy trees behind. A man with long dark swept-back hair and a gold-coloured necklace of marigold garlands walks at the centre in saffron-orange robes, with a multicoloured canopy umbrella with tasselled edges held over him. Around him walk many saffron-robed monks and sannyasis, most shaved-headed, wearing rudraksha and flower garlands, and a few women in orange saris with gold necklaces, one holding a book. Several young onlookers in dark clothes stand at the left. The central figure's appearance is consistent with the page's claim, but the cues are not conclusive, so identity is marked unsure.2013-02-28March 10 20132013-03-10May 30 20132013-05-30A procession walks along a paved path under dappled tree shade. A central man in a deep maroon-brown robe and matching turban wears a long white and pink flower garland and a gold-toned necklace. Above him a green, red and orange canopy with long fringed tassels is held aloft on a pole by a man in saffron. Around him walk other men: a bare-chested man in a white dhoti with a rudraksha mala at left, several in saffron or orange cloth, and a bare-chested figure in a white dhoti at right. Some carry offerings or small items. The scene suggests a ceremonial procession with an umbrella-like canopy, though the specific event is not visible.2016-10-08December 03 20162016-12-03December 22 20182018-12-22 +2 copiesA procession walks along a stone-paved path between large banyan tree roots under a bright canopy.
