Outdoor scene beside a whitewashed wall and a corrugated roof. A shaved-headed monk in saffron-orange robes with a rudraksha mala draped across his shoulders and a hoop earring stands with his back to the camera, his bare arm held by a woman. She wears a blue blouse and a light blue floral sari with a red bindi, her hands clasping his arm and her face turned toward him as she speaks. Dried palm fronds hang on a pillar to the right, and a small shop with a glass-front shelf of packaged goods sits beside her.2013-11-15May 24 20182018-05-24 +1 copiesNovember 15 20132013-11-15Four people walk outdoors past a pale green building with a white-framed window and a blue plastic drum at left. A bald man in the foreground wears orange ochre robes draped over one shoulder, with a long rudraksha mala around his neck and a bracelet on his wrist, gathering the cloth with both hands. Behind him a woman in a dark red sari with a red bindi and a beaded necklace holds a bundled cloth, and a woman in orange robes with a white-marked forehead carries a folded orange cloth. A woman in a dark red sari appears partly behind them. No deity, throne or ritual setting is visible.2013-11-15May 24 20182018-05-24 +1 copiesJanuary 06 20122012-01-06May 18 20122012-05-18Outdoors on a dirt path beside a whitewashed building with coloured paper garlands and a thatched pavilion behind. A long-haired man in an orange-saffron robe with his hand raised to his cheek stands in conversation with two shaven-headed monks: one in a deep maroon robe on the left, one in a lighter orange-brown robe in the centre. A man in white clothes stands behind them, and several seated and standing people in the background under the thatched shelter wear orange and white. Palm trees and a hazy sky fill the background. Swamiji (probable) is the long-haired figure in saffron, wearing a long dark swept-back hair, orange robe and wrap, shown in conversation with the monks.2006-12-24 +1 copiesOutdoor photo beside a whitewashed concrete block wall with a doorway. A young person with long dark hair and a red bindi stands in the doorway, draped in a saffron-orange cloth over the shoulders and body, looking to the side. To the right, an older man in glasses wears a white dhoti and a saffron-orange shawl over his shoulder, turned toward the doorway. A tree canopy is visible overhead and a red-lidded container sits near the wall.2006-09-19August 17 20062006-08-17Outdoor photo of a line of devotees in saffron and orange robes standing on a dusty paved road in front of a pink gateway with a fence. Several women in rust-red and orange saris stand at left with hands folded or resting near their faces. Men in orange dhotis and shawls, some wearing rudraksha malas, stand with hands joined at the centre and right. Behind them a decorated ratha or palanquin with a golden canopy and a flag rises above the crowd. Trees and a blue sky frame the scene. Appearance-based identification of any individual is uncertain, so the people are described by their roles as devotees and sannyasis.2013-11-15A photograph of an outdoor courtyard at a pink building with a doorway decorated with orange marigold garlands. Three saffron-robed men stand on bare dirt in conversation: a shaved-headed man in orange on the left gesturing with his hand, an elderly bald man in a pale peach wrap in the centre with his hands folded, and a figure with long dark wavy hair in an orange robe on the right. Another saffron-robed man stands at the far right edge, and a cameraman in a red shirt films near the doorway. Sandals are scattered on the ground, a banana plant and a tree are behind, and a few other people stand in the background. The a person candidate is not clearly distinguishable by appearance here, so no identification is made.2007-08-09
