In the centre, a golden hamsa (swan) vahana mounted on a wooden cart with wheels is being inspected. A bare-chested sannyasi in orange cloth with a swept-back tied topknot reaches toward the golden bird. Around him, saffron-robed monastics and men in white dhotis and shirts look on, and a man in a grey shirt with an ID lanyard stands at left. A framed portrait of a saint hangs on the left wall. Several people are visible, and the scene is a photograph of a procession vehicle preparation.2009-12-29June 11 20142014-06-11December 29 20092009-12-29June 19 20142014-06-19Photograph inside an open-sided temple pavilion with a corrugated metal roof and tall pillars. Several robed men walk together across a concrete floor. In front, a bearded older man in saffron-orange robes walks with a wooden staff beside a man in a red-orange shawl and garland. Next to them, a man in saffron robes with long hair and a rudraksha mala walks alongside a man in white shirt and dhoti. Behind them, men in white and orange clothing follow. On the right, decorated shrines with colourful arches, floral garlands, and ornate deity murti are arranged along the wall, with brass offerings and a small white brick platform in the foreground.2006-12-31November 05 20132013-11-05A photo taken inside a covered storage or preparation hall with corrugated metal roof and orange drapes hung along the right wall. A gilded golden vahana, a carved swan or hamsa-style mount on wheels with a red cushioned seat, stands on the concrete floor in the foreground. Several men gather around it: a man in a white shirt and dhoti with his back to the camera on the left, a barefoot man in a long orange robe with orange shawl in the centre, and a man in orange robes with an orange shawl beside him. Others in white dhotis, a yellow-shawled man, and a man in a light blue shirt stand nearby. Ceremonial banners and poles hang on the left wall. The gilded vahana resembles a hamsa vehicle for procession.2009-12-29August 24 20142014-08-24
