A smiling man in an orange-brown dhoti-style garment with a matching shoulder wrap sits on an ornate seat, wearing a heavy gold necklace and small gold earrings with a red tilak on his forehead. A man in a white shirt leans in close, placing his hand on the seated man's shoulder in a warm, affectionate gesture. Behind them, a white room cooler, a red draped backdrop, a camera on a tripod, and other people in white and orange clothing fill the setting.2012-07-09A smiling man in saffron-orange robes and multiple strands of rudraksha malas stands at left, with white and red tilak on his forehead, gold tassel necklaces, a beaded armband and gold earring. He is clasping hands with an older man in a white shirt and glasses who stands at right, receiving something from him. Behind them a monk in orange robes and a woman stand near silver drapery and a red curtain, with a decorative green-and-orange panel at far left.2012-09-05July 08 20132013-07-08May 08 20162016-05-08A seated figure in an orange-brown robe with a rudraksha-style bead necklace reaches forward and places a hand on the forehead of a man in a white kurta with an orange shawl, who has his palms pressed together in respect. The seated figure has long dark hair tied back and gold earrings and is smiling. Behind them hang red and orange draped fabrics, with flowers at the upper left. Two more people are partly visible in the background, including a woman with a red bindi and a person at the right edge.
