Outdoor courtyard scene under a corrugated tin roof with a tiled raised platform at left. A man in a red-maroon turban and maroon dhoti with gold waist cloth, wearing layered beaded necklaces, walks forward at centre, smiling. Around him, robed sadhus and monks in saffron-orange and ochre robes, one with a long white beard, stand or move through the courtyard; one in white dhoti and orange shawl wears a red-orange garland. A man in orange robes bends forward at lower right, and a bearded sadhu in orange with a red-orange turban stands behind. The scene suggests a group procession or arrival among sadhus; no a person identity is established from appearance.

A photograph of a street-side exchange outside a building with a metal grille and hanging greenery. In the foreground, a bearded man in orange shirt and black rudraksha mala folds his hands in greeting. Beside him, a bald man in a saffron-orange shawl with a bead necklace stands near the door. On the right, a sadhu in a deep red turban and bare-chested with an orange shawl and yellow flower garland folds his hands in namaste. Other saffron-robed sadhus, a man in a red turban, and onlookers stand behind, with a bare-chested older devotee and several people further back.

A photograph in a narrow whitewashed corridor of an ashram or temple in Varanasi, with a long row of food-laden plates on a low table along the right. On the right, a smiling man in a deep red-maroon turban, a garland of white flowers and orange marigolds, and a red-and-yellow striped dhoti and shawl stands near the plates. Several saffron-robed sannyasis surround the scene, including a bearded elder on the left with a multicoloured shawl, rudraksha mala and walking stick, and a shaved-headed monk in orange bending forward with hands pressed together in greeting. Other monks in orange and pink robes stand behind, some barefoot, and a man in white is partly visible at the far right. Under the photograph's caption, the right-hand man in the maroon turban and orange garland has some appearance-based cues matching the a person label, though the identification is uncertain.

Photograph of a procession through a covered walkway in a village setting, with a red carpet underfoot. At the centre, a man in a saffron-orange turban and saffron-orange robe with a rudraksha mala and a white and red flower garland stands smiling, hands at his sides. The page places a person at this event, but the figure's appearance is only partially distinctive, so identity is uncertain. Beside him, a bearded man in an orange dhoti and shawl stands next to an older man in white. Devotees in white dhotis and shirts line the path, some with folded hands, and a woman in a white sari with orange border stands at left. Men in red kurtas carry items at right, and a green-framed doorway and blue wall with floral garlands appear at left.
