A night-time outdoor photograph of a long, unbroken line of devotees in plain white traditional clothing, many women in white saris and men in white dhotis and shirts, holding hands in a chain that stretches across a stone-paved courtyard. Some women wear red or maroon borders, one wears a blue-and-white sari, and several wear name badges on their clothing. Strings of blue fairy lights and a green illuminated pillar appear in the dark background behind trees. Only the people in the foreground chain are clearly visible; the line extends beyond the frame, so the count is approximate.

Night outdoor scene under strings of multicoloured fairy lights hung in trees. A row of devotees stands on a paved courtyard, many with palms pressed together in namaste. Men wear white dhotis and white or lavender shirts, several with vertical white tilak on the forehead, and some carry yellow cloth bags. Women in white saris with gold borders and a woman in a pink-and-green embroidered kurta stand among them. No clearly identifiable central figure is visible in this frame.

Night photograph of a line of devotees in white clothing standing on a dark ground outdoors, some with hands pressed together in prayer. A woman in the centre wears a white kurta with an orange-yellow shawl and folds her hands; to the right, a woman in a white top and trousers and others in white garments with rudraksha-style beads look upward. A dim lamp glows in the background beside a dark shrine-like structure. Scene suggests an evening ritual or procession; no clearly identifiable a person figure is visible.

Night outdoor procession at a temple-style ground lit by flash. A central figure with long dark hair wears a green-gold silk dhoti-style garment, a long white and red flower garland, gold necklaces and a sacred thread, with a forehead marking. He stands barefoot on petals and sand, hands clasped at his sides. Around him, men in white dhotis and shawls, some with forehead tilaka and rudraksha or bead malas, and women in white saris with yellow and orange borders, many with hands folded in anjali. Behind them, large ornate round umbrellas or parasols with red, gold and blue panels are carried on tall poles, and an orange-clad attendant stands near. A woman in a red shawl at right also joins palms. Stairs and a railing appear at left.

Night outdoor scene at a ground with dry grass and a white line marking, under a string of orange and blue triangular bunting. A line of about seven people stands facing forward. A woman in a white sari with gold border holds a brass plate with a decorated pot and flowers. Men wear white shirts and orange-brown dhotis, and a man in a white dhoti and shirt holds a white garland. A girl in a white top and orange skirt stands among them, and a woman in a green patterned sari stands nearby. No a person candidate is visible, so people are described by role and dress only.

Outdoor photo of a group of devotees standing in a line under leafy trees, many wearing flower garlands. Most men wear white kurta or shirt and trousers, one man wears an orange-pink shirt on the right, and the women wear white salwar or a patterned top with an orange shawl. Some hold hands together in prayer or stand with hands clasped in front. A bald man in a blue lanyard stands at the center. The scene suggests a welcoming line at an ashram program, with no clear a person figure visible.
