Outdoor photo at a temple courtyard with palm trees and a red brick wall. In the centre, a seated figure in orange robes sits cross-legged on an orange mat in front of a black Nandi bull statue and a tall red and gold shrine pillar. Six seated people in white clothing and dark cords face away from the camera toward the figure, including a man in a light blue shirt and a bald man at the front left. Two standing people in white clothes are in the background near a silver SUV, and a red and white striped step is at the left. A figure in orange robes with long hair appears to be the seated speaker, with a plain look and no visible crown or turban; the appearance is too uncertain to identify the speaker. Strings of lamps and a large garland hang from the poles overhead.2011-03-05 +1 copiesOctober 27 20102010-10-27 +1 copiesOutdoor photo at an open paved courtyard under a bamboo-roofed pavilion with palm trees.
