Indoor event photograph with a man in white shirt holding a brass tray of bananas and a folded red cloth toward a figure in saffron-orange robes and a long rudraksha mala with red-brown beads, who has long swept-back hair and a bracelet, and smiles while another man in a white shirt stands nearby. Several other men stand around, one in a checked shirt, one with palms pressed together, and a bald man in white dhoti with an orange shawl at right edge. Orange and yellow decorative tassels hang from the ceiling behind them. Swamiji (probable): the saffron-robed figure with long swept-back hair and rudraksha mala fits the distinctive presentation cues, shown in person receiving offerings.

Indoor photograph in a whitewashed hall with barred windows and a metal-roofed ceiling. A seated figure in saffron-orange robes with long dark hair tied up sits on a red velvet cushion, holding fruit or offerings and facing a group. A bald man in an orange dhoti and sash, with rudraksha beads around his neck, stands at left holding a silver tray of offerings. Around them a semicircle of men in white shirts and white dhotis, some holding fruit, stands and smiles; one man at right in white with a rudraksha-style mala looks on from the foreground. A plastic water bottle sits on the floor near the seated figure.

A photograph inside a bright hall with corrugated roof and yellow walls. At centre, a smiling man wears a dark red-maroon robe, a headband of gold-coloured ornament, white jasmine garlands with green leaves draped over his shoulders and a white flower pinned at his chest, and a beaded rudraksha-style necklace. He raises one hand in greeting. Around him stand devotees and men in shirts, a bald man in an orange-brown shawl behind him, and an older man in white at the left. In the foreground a wooden tray holds oranges, apples and other fruit. Visible people number about nine, all standing.

Outdoor photo of a crowd of men standing on a concrete ground near a concrete canopy structure, with trees and distant buildings behind them. A man in the foreground left wears a beige polo shirt and a rudraksha mala. An older man beside him wears a white dhoti with an orange-yellow shawl and a pendant. A man in the centre wears a white shirt and holds a mobile phone to his ear, with a white badge clipped to his pocket. Others wear white shirts, dhotis and casual clothes.

A photograph of a white-walled hall with ceiling fans. In the foreground, a seated figure with long dark hair wears an orange robe and sits on a red cushion, facing away from the camera. To the left, a man in an orange dhoti holds a silver tray of fruit and offerings toward him. Behind and around them, about nine men stand in white shirts and dhotis or trousers, with one man in a yellow-and-gold dhoti and shawl wearing a tilak on his forehead. Baskets of fruit and a small bell-like object sit on the floor near the cushion. The seated figure's identity is not established from appearance; the orange-robed, long-haired figure is a sannyasi-style devotee in a ritual setting.
