A dense crowd of devotees reaches upward with outstretched arms and hands toward a central point, most. Several women in the foreground wear red and orange clothing, with red bangles on their wrists. Their faces are partially visible and blurred by the crowd density, and the tight packing of arms suggests a large gathering at a temple or public procession.

Behind them, an older man in orange with a bare upper body and a saffron shawl stands among several other men, including one in a red top and one in white, and their arms and hands are close together as the exchange takes place.2012-05-24May 18 20122012-05-18 +1 copiesJune 05 20122012-06-05 +1 copiesJune 05 20122012-06-05May 16 20122012-05-16 +1 copiesJune 03 20122012-06-03 +1 copiesPhotograph of a temple ritual at night with a crowd of men pressed close together. In the centre, a man in a red-orange garment and a gold-coloured shawl stands with his hands together while several bare-chested men with orange cloths around their waists and shoulders surround him. Several people carry garlands or offerings, and a warm lamp light illuminates the scene. The setting appears to be a South Indian temple courtyard associated with a padukapooja-style welcome. No clear face-based identification is made; the central figure's appearance is not distinctive enough to confirm identity.2012-05-16May 12 20122012-05-12 +1 copiesMay 16 20122012-05-16May 22 20122012-05-22 +1 copiesJune 03 20122012-06-03 +1 copies
