On the left, an orange-and-red decorated umbrella hangs overhead. Several people in orange and red robes stand near the centre; one man on the left has a shaved head, a yellow beaded necklace and an orange shoulder bag, and a woman in a black garment with a shawl walks nearby. Wooden crates, white foam boxes, blue and white plastic bags and orange sacks fill the foreground, with a gold-and-red chair partly visible at left.2016-04-26April 16 20162016-04-16June 01 20162016-06-01May 28 20162016-05-28A covered storage and preparation hall with a corrugated metal roof and concrete floor. Orange cloth hangs from metal shelving on the left, and an orange-draped chair with a gold-trimmed footstool stands near the left wall. In the centre, a man in an orange robe walks forward while several people in orange and white clothing stand nearby. A few other people in white shirts and dhotis are visible further back. On the right, colourful ceremonial fabrics, orange cloths, a round wooden frame and a tall ceremonial staff are arranged along a shelf and wall. Rolled colourful mats lie on the floor at the lower left.2009-12-29A cluttered room filled with stacked cardboard boxes, sacks, plastic bags, folded orange and saffron cloth, old books, a wooden board and assorted household items piled on the floor and tables. Two people in white clothing work among the clutter: one bent over a table at the right, another standing at the top centre near framed pictures on the wall. Decorative tall brass or wooden lamp stands with bird finials stand at the right edge, and a framed portrait hangs on the wall. A plastic pail, a rolling pin and a metal tray are visible in the foreground.2012-05-11Interior of a large storage and preparation hall with a corrugated roof and steel shelving holding bundled orange cloth and boxes. Several people in saffron and white clothing walk through the central aisle; one man in an orange robe and rudraksha-free attire stands in front. A draped orange-covered seat with gold-coloured carved legs sits at left, beside a gilded ceremonial stand and rolled orange fabric. Some onlookers in white and checked shirts stand near the back. Orange and yellow cloth hangs from racks at right alongside a dark metal frame and hanging ritual textiles.2009-12-29A photograph inside a cluttered room with sunlight streaming in. A bald man in saffron-orange robes with a bare upper body and orange shawl stands at left, seen from behind. At right, a seated man with long dark hair tied up under a headband, wearing an orange-saffron shawl draped over his bare shoulder, a gold necklace and an orange cloth over his lap, sits on a black chair with hands resting on its arms. Around them are wooden tables, sewing machines, a brass lamp, a bag of oranges, a small stack of papers, and a small red framed picture on the floor. The seated man has distinctive visible cues of long swept-back hair, a headband, saffron clothing and gold adornment, so he is a person candidate, though the appearance is only partly clear; the standing figure is a devotee in saffron robes.2012-05-11A photograph inside a corrugated metal shipping container crammed with temple items. A man with white-grey hair and beard, wearing an orange saffron robe and red sandals, walks away from the camera holding a wooden walking stick, with another person in dark clothing behind him. Around them are wooden carved panels, a red-cushioned chair, brass deity figures, a bronze Nataraja dancing Shiva statue on the right, a pink and gold cloth bundle, coiled rope and burlap sacks on the floor.2013-11-05
