A photograph of a covered walkway with a wooden rafter roof and white pillars, each painted with a black spear motif. A man in a flowing saffron-orange robe and a long gold necklace walks centrally along a stone path, with long dark hair and a tilak on his forehead. Beside and behind him, two men in white dhotis walk barefoot; the older man on the left is bare-chested and gestures toward the path. Sunlight and tree shade fall on the sandy ground, and a palm tree stands at the right edge. The orange-robed figure has long swept-back hair, a gold necklace and saffron clothing, which qualifies as a probable appearance cue.

A photograph of people walking along a covered colonnade with a tiled roof, white-washed walls on the right and a wooden-beamed ceiling above, trees and greenery visible beyond the open side on the left. In the centre, a man with long dark hair wears an orange saffron robe and a gold-coloured beaded necklace, walking barefoot and carrying nothing in his hands. Beside and behind him, men in white dhotis and white shirts walk; one carries a walking stick and a dark bag. On the right, a bare-chested man in a white dhoti with a sacred thread walks with his hands folded at his chest. The scene has a quiet, orderly palace-compound feel.

A photograph of a covered colonnaded walkway with white stone pillars and a tiled wooden roof, lined by green mossy walls and foliage. Four men walk down the wet stone path. In front, a bare-chested man in white dhoti with a rudraksha-style necklace and glasses walks at left; beside him on the right, a man in an orange-saffron robe with a long necklace and swept-back hair walks in the lead, and two men in white dhotis with orange shawls follow behind. A hanging lantern is visible overhead. Visible cues for the man in the saffron robe with long hair and a necklace are consistent with Swamiji (probable), walking with his attendants in a palace corridor setting.

A photograph of a covered stone corridor in an old palace, with a vaulted wooden-beamed ceiling, carved grey stone pillars and moss-stained walls. Three people walk toward the viewer on a tiled floor: a figure in saffron-orange robes with a long garland of beads and a bead necklace, a person in white clothing beside them, and a bare-chested man in a white dhoti with his hands folded at his chest. A hanging lantern lights the passage ahead.

A covered stone colonnade with a tiled wooden roof and carved pillars runs through a palace grounds, lined with green moss on the left wall and shrubs on the right. Five people walk single file down the sunlit path: the central figure wears a saffron-orange robe, a long orange shawl and a beaded necklace; the others wear white robes and white shawls, and the last man is bare-chested with a white dhoti and folded hands. A hanging lantern and a red pipe run along the roof. No clear identification of the saffron-robed figure can be made from appearance alone.

A photograph of a doorway in a plain whitewashed wall, with dark wooden double doors swung open. A man with long, swept-back dark hair and a tilak on his forehead walks forward through the doorway wearing a saffron-orange robe, a long gold chain with a pendant, and orange sandals; his hands are folded in front of him. Two older men flanking him are bare-chested and wear white dhotis; one has white hair and the other a moustache. Several more people stand in the dim interior behind them, and one holds a bundle of green leaves. The floor is pale stone.

In front, a figure in an orange robe with an orange shawl and a long beaded necklace walks with a bare-chested man in a white dhoti and white shawl. Behind them, others in white dhotis and white garments with orange shawls follow. Green grass and a low wall surround the scene.

A photograph of a group walking along a covered corridor in a traditional Kerala building with terracotta-tiled roofs, white-washed walls, and wooden pillars. In front, a figure with long dark hair wears an orange-saffron garment and a gold-coloured necklace, holding his hands together before him. Around him, several bare-chested men in white dhotis walk in step; one on the left carries a bunch of bananas. The stone-paved passage is lit by daylight from an open courtyard, and a parked motorcycle stands against a column on the right.
