A barefoot man in saffron-orange robes with maroon borders bows low with his forehead resting on a stone platform edge carved with floral scrollwork. He wears a rudraksha mala and his hair is tied in a knot at the back of his head. Behind him, a seated white statue draped in orange with an orange turban and rudraksha beads sits on a raised platform, flanked by brass oil lamps and a silver-ornamented deity murti garlanded with yellow marigolds and purple flowers. A red curtain hangs at right and a red-walled building and iron gate stand in the background. The scene reads as a devotional prostration at a shrine.2011-01-31July 07 20092009-07-07December 28 20082008-12-28 +1 copiesA barefoot man in orange robes bows low, forehead resting on the edge of a grey stone shrine platform. He has long, dark, curly hair and wears an orange sleeveless top with orange dhoti-style trousers. He stands on an orange mat with a blue and purple striped border.

Bare-shouldered and wearing red and gold bangles on the wrist, with a folded kneeling mat of yellow and white patterned cloth on the stone floor. Behind the stone ledge are brass lamps and a brass dish with an incense stick. Red and white painted pillars and walls frame the pavilion. The figure is shown from behind, so no face is visible, and the figure is a devotee at the shrine, not a clearly identifiable individual.2012-04-17October 18 20102010-10-18 +1 copiesA photo of a person in an orange saffron robe with long dark hair bowing deeply at a stone shrine platform, hands together near a rudraksha mala hanging from the wrist.

A red fabric hangs at right and a stone pillar with carved figures stands at left. The lone person is visible and no identifiable a person is confirmed by appearance, so no name is attributed to him.2011-01-31July 07 20102010-07-07 +1 copiesA barefoot man in a saffron-orange sleeveless top and orange dhoti leans forward and bows his head toward a carved grey stone ledge in a temple-style shrine.
