Night photograph of a white ornate Hindu temple tower with a large dark wooden door standing open, light glowing inside. On the stone steps, a long-haired man in a flowing white robe with a white shawl and a beaded necklace stands with one hand touching his ear, appearing to be in motion. To his left, a bespectacled man in white kurta and white dhoti stands near the steps; to his right, an older bespectacled man in a white shirt and light trousers holds a folded bouquet. Shoes lie at the foot of the steps. The central figure matches the page's description of a person presence at this event, with long swept-back hair and white robes, though the appearance is only partly visible and his identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.

Night photo at a white stone temple with ornate carved tower and lit doorway, lit warmly from within. In the foreground, a man in white kurta stands at left, looking toward the temple. Two people in orange robes stand near the centre, one with long dark hair facing the temple, another in orange further right beside a figure in white. At far right, a person in yellow-orange shawl with a maroon border stands with others in white. Palm fronds hang at the upper left. Appearance-based candidate: a person in orange robes with long dark hair may be a person but the face and build cannot be confirmed, so a person is unsure. Visible people are about six.2010-02-03February 03 20102010-02-03Night photo of a stone temple gateway with a carved gopuram tower behind it, a single lit lamp hanging near the entrance and a doorway glowing with light.

On the right, a man with long dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead wears a bright saffron-yellow robe and places his right hand on his chest. On the left, a man in an orange robe stands with arms folded. In the centre, a man in a white dhoti and white shirt with a red shawl holds a small notepad. Behind them, striped red, blue and yellow decorative pillars frame a shrine with a deity murti and green foliage. The right-hand man's ascetic presentation (long hair, tilak, saffron robe) is a cue for a possible identification, but the image is not decisive, so he is described by role only.2010-02-04A photograph taken at night under a stone colonnade with pillars and a wooden ceiling.
