October 26 20112011-10-26Outdoor photo beside a silver minivan with its sliding side door open. A smiling person in a flowing saffron-orange robe with a wrapped shawl stands at the door, a tilak on the forehead and long dark hair swept back, which the page identifies as a person appearance, though the photo itself shows only a probable match. Facing them is an older woman in a white sari with a gold border and a red wrist thread, holding a brass plate of pink flowers. A green-painted building with a thatched roof and palm trees stands behind them, and pink flowers are in the foreground.2010-01-10December 18 20112011-12-18July 27 20082008-07-27March 03 20112011-03-03A man with long dark hair, a red bindi and an orange saffron garment with gold trim stands beside an open silver car door. He wears a beaded rudraksha-style mala necklace and matching beaded armbands and wrist bands. He reaches his hand toward a brass vessel held by a young man in orange robes wearing a gold-beaded necklace, and the vessel is decorated with yellow marigold garlands. Another person sits inside the car, and palm trees and an orange-painted wall stand in the background.2011-12-22A photograph of a roadside arrival outside a parked silver car. On the left, a man in saffron-orange robes with a gold-bead necklace holds a silver kalasha topped with green leaves, a corn cob and a purple flower, and gestures toward the right. Facing him on the right, a man with long swept-back dark hair wears a red-and-gold sari-style garment, a long rudraksha mala and a gold necklace with a pendant, and a red tilak on his forehead; he holds his hands out in conversation. A white-clad attendant is partly visible at the far left edge, and an orange brick wall and a green sign stand behind. The scene reads as a pada-puja welcome, with the kalasha offered to the figure on the right.2011-12-12December 27 20082008-12-27A photograph of a shaved-headed man in an orange-saffron robe stepping out of a silver SUV onto dusty ground, with palm trees and a flag-lined background behind. Two attendants in orange robes stand beside him: one at left wears an orange turban and holds a bead necklace, and one at right in an orange kurta with a maroon shawl holds a silver vessel with a green leaf offering. A person in white at far right holds hands in namaste. The seated man's features are not distinctive enough to identify him, so his identity is unsure; he is shown as an exiting passenger in orange ritual dress.2008-12-30December 24 20092009-12-24A covered porch at an entrance with palm plants and trees behind. A man in a white shirt stands at the left edge. A woman in an orange top and red skirt faces a man in orange robes with a pink shawl who is smiling and gesturing with hands. At the centre-right, a smiling young man in a red sleeveless top and orange dhoti wears a gold-and-orange garland and presses his palms together in greeting. Behind him, a silver SUV has its door open, and an older bearded man in orange robes sits inside. Yellow ceiling edge and a pink-striped wall frame the scene.2008-09-04Outdoor evening scene at night beside a silver car with its door open. A man in a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl, wearing layered gold necklaces, bangles and a leopard-print shawl, stands smiling with a tall black-haired hairstyle and white-and-red tilak on his forehead. Beside him a shaven-headed young man in saffron-orange robes with a rudraksha mala holds a silver kalasha pot topped with green leaves on a plate, offering it. Behind them a decorated festival cart with colourful fringed hangings and a deity murti is visible, and a palm tree and an information board stand nearby. Procession ritual setting consistent with a rathotsavam.2011-12-17
