Photograph of two saffron-robed sadhus at an outdoor camp with red and white banners behind them. The man on the right wears a tall orange turban wrapped high on his head, a dark tilak on his forehead, a gold chain, and a thick brown rudraksha mala draped over his shoulders, smiling broadly. The bearded man on the left wears an orange robe, has yellow and red tilak markings, and holds a tall orange-red staff upright. Behind them stand several onlookers in white shirts and a pink turban, one wearing glasses and another holding a camera.

Outdoor photo at a festival with a green hedge and pine trees behind. In the foreground, a man in an orange turban and orange shawl with a long dark hair and a dark brown rudraksha mala sits in the left foreground, looking to the side. Beside him, a bearded man with white hair wears an orange kurta and sits with eyes closed, a red stick or pole rising behind him. Other people in blue shirts, white clothes and sunglasses sit or stand around them, including a man in a white shirt in the background. A distinctive visible role is not clear from the image alone, so the orange-robed figures are described by clothing and posture only.

A photograph of a man in saffron-orange robes and a matching orange turban with a red tilak mark on his forehead, long dark hair falling over his shoulders, and a heavy gold bead necklace, speaking with an open mouth as he stands in a crowd. Behind him a red umbrella canopy is visible. To his left a man with a grey beard wears white garments and holds his hands together in a respectful gesture, and a man in a black cap stands beside him. To the right a man in an orange shirt looks on with a serious expression, and another man in an orange garment stands behind. A bald man in a light top is partly visible in the background. The bearded man in white and the speaker with the turban and gold necklace have distinctive presentation cues consistent with the Swamiji candidate, so the speaker is labeled as a probable Swamiji.

A man in a saffron-orange turban and orange robe stands outdoors under a red umbrella, smiling as he holds a white pole with his right hand. He wears a red bindi, a long gold-bead necklace, and a garland of white and red flowers draped over his shoulders. Behind him, a helper in an orange shawl and another person in white are visible under green foliage, with tasselled umbrella fringes in teal and orange. Probable Swamiji (probable): the saffron turban and robe, long dark hair, gold bead necklace and flower garland are the visible cues for this candidate, shown as a ceremonial participant.

Outdoor procession photo. A man in the centre wears an orange turban and orange robe, with long dark hair flowing down his back, a red bindi on his forehead and a heavy gold bead necklace; he appears to be speaking. Around him stand devotees: on the left a man in white with glasses, red tilak and a rudraksha mala; behind him a man in a white cap printed with the year 2007; on the right a younger man with curly hair, red tilak, orange robe and gold necklace. A red and gold umbrella or ratha canopy is visible in the blurred background.

A photograph of a seated man in orange robes on a silver-framed chair at an outdoor event. He wears an orange turban, a dark red bindi on his forehead, and a long necklace of dark rudraksha beads over an orange sleeveless garment with the hands folded in his lap. Beside him on the left, an older man in a white shirt, dark vest and a green, yellow and red shawl sits watching. To the right, a shaven-headed man in orange robes sits near a tall brass lamp decorated with orange and white flowers. Behind them a man in a white shirt stands beside a large backdrop painted with a red temple and palm trees. The seated central figure is an appearance-based a person candidate with turban, rudraksha mala and saffron robes, present in person.

Outdoor photo at a garden event with a red and gold banner bearing a white bird and floral borders beside seated men. In the centre, a man wears an orange turban, orange robe and long rudraksha mala, with long dark hair and a red tilak, seated with eyes lowered. To his right, a bearded man with long grey hair wears an orange robe and sits with hands together. At left, a man in a cream robe and glasses sits. Behind them, men in blue t-shirts, one in white shirt, and a woman in white sari stand among dense green hedges. The centre man has appearance-based cues of long swept hair, turban and rudraksha mala; the page does not place him at this event, so identity is unsure. Visible people total about ten.
