Four boys crouch together on bare reddish-brown dirt beside a freshly planted sapling in a small hole. The boy at front right wears a beige short-sleeved shirt, grey shorts, a dark beaded mala necklace and a thin gold bangle, and holds a green plastic bottle. Beside him a boy in a checked shirt and navy shorts wears a beaded necklace and bracelet, another in a blue top kneels, and a boy in a dark red and orange printed shirt leans in. A standing boy in a checked shirt and another in a navy shirt with a lanyard watch from the background against a white wall with a blue window frame.

Five boys sit cross-legged in a rough circle on a bare concrete floor, apparently at a children's program. The boy at upper left wears a red t-shirt, blue jeans and a name badge, with his hands clasped at his knees. The boy at top centre wears a dark t-shirt with a cartoon print and grey-khaki trousers, hands together near his chest and mouth open as if chanting. The boy at right wears a black and orange collared shirt with a badge and grey trousers, eyes closed, hands resting in his lap. The boy in the foreground left wears a red t-shirt, and the boy in the foreground right wears a pale yellow shirt and khaki shorts with a red thread on his wrist. Partially visible boys in white and green appear at the top edge. A rope marks the edge of the circle.

Outdoor photo on a bare dirt ground at an ashram-style compound. A large group of children sits on white plastic chairs and on the ground in a loose semicircle. Several adults in white clothing stand among them, one in a white robe and one in a white top, with an adult in a light sari and a woman in orange near the middle. Behind them stand a two-storey cream building with a red-tiled roof, a thatched hut, a green gate in a white wall, and leafy trees. Sandals are placed on the ground at the right, and a blue bag sits on a chair.

Several boys sit cross-legged on a woven mat outdoors in front of a white wall with green shrubs and a terracotta pot behind it. The boy in the center wears a light blue patterned short-sleeved shirt and blue jeans, with a red bindi on his forehead and a bangle on his wrist. Beside him a older boy in an orange-red checked shirt and beige trousers sits with his hands folded, and at the right edge a man in an orange-red shirt and grey trousers gestures with his hand. A boy in a cream patterned shirt and brown trousers at left looks toward the group, and a partial figure in yellow and green is visible at far left. The setting appears to be a casual group gathering or discussion.

Outdoors on a sandy ground, a line of boys in mostly orange and white shirts and grey or blue trousers, many barefoot, pull hard on a long wooden rope in a tug-of-war game. Smiling boys on the rope line lean back, and a few boys stand behind them watching. A pale yellow wall, a chain-link fence and flowering plants form the backdrop, with a stack of wood at the right edge.

Outdoor scene at an ashram-style compound on bare red earth beneath trees. A large crowd of children, many in white and colourful clothes, sits on the ground and on white plastic chairs in a loose semicircle. Several adults in white clothing stand and sit among them, one standing figure in a white kurta gesturing toward the group. Behind them stands a two-storey cream building with a red-tiled roof, a thatched-roof shelter with wooden posts, a green iron gate and a white boundary wall. Sandals lie on the ground at the right edge.

A tug-of-war game on a dirt ground in front of a plain yellow wall and a chain-link fence. Several boys in white, orange and pale shirts and light trousers, some barefoot, lean back and pull a thick rope with a white cloth tied to its middle and a red-pink cord at the end. Marigold plants grow at the left edge, and a wooden crate sits at the right beside a large stone. Chalk lines mark the playing area.

A photograph of a children's outdoor gathering on bare dirt ground in front of a two-storey cream building with a red-tiled roof and a thatched palm-leaf shelter. About thirty children sit on white plastic chairs in a loose circle, many in white and colourful school clothes. A young man in white shirt and dhoti stands at right, facing them, while several adults in white and one woman in an orange sari sit among the children. A green metal gate and white wall are at left, with shrubs and trees around the compound.

A candid outdoor photo beside a red brick wall with lattice windows. A young man in white kurta with an orange saffron shawl stands centrally, facing a boy in a white shirt. On the left, a boy in a white kurta wears a rudraksha mala and a blue and yellow ribbon badge. A boy in a lime green shirt and blue shorts sits on a stack of corrugated white sheets, and another boy in a light shirt wears a name badge. A girl in green on the far left and a woman in a patterned top on the right complete the group. Five to six people are visible, and no figure is clearly a person.
