A photograph inside a dim room with a patterned tiled floor and a wooden counter at right holding pink containers and small offerings. A standing man in an orange-saffron turban and orange robe, with a dark rudraksha-style bead mala over his shoulder, faces the windows at left, which have ornate leaf-patterned grilles and coloured glass. A second person in white head covering bends forward in the background near stacked cardboard boxes. Walls show framed images and a small shrine area.

Interior of a temple hall with red-framed windows containing stained-glass panels of floral designs, and a patterned tiled floor in pink, green and blue. A standing figure in the left foreground wears a saffron-orange turban, an orange robe with rolled sleeves and a dark beaded mala around the neck; the figure faces right toward the altar. A second person in white garments bends forward near the centre. Stacked cardboard boxes sit at left. At the right, a wooden counter holds small pink and red offering cups, and behind it are framed religious images and a figure of a deity murti. The space is dim with warm lighting.

Indoor photograph of a doorway opening onto a festooned outdoor area. In the foreground on the right, a tall man in a rust-orange robe and orange turban stands with one hand on his hip, wearing a long rudraksha mala. Beside him to the left, several men in orange and saffron robes, some shaved-headed, stand or sit near an arched stained-glass window with blue panes. A man in a yellow-orange shawl with a printed om symbol stands in the middle background, and a man in white stands at the right edge. Outside, marigold and flower garlands hang from a decorated canopy over a red-cloth platform. Several people in orange robes and white clothing appear, and the scene suggests a ceremonial gathering.

A red chair and a partial statue at the right edge complete the scene.

Indoor photograph of an interior doorway with a stained-glass arched window on the left and a garlanded floral toran hanging above the opening. A man in saffron-orange robes faces left, hands at chest. Beside him, a central figure in saffron robes with a red-orange head covering and a beaded rudraksha-style mala stands with palms pressed together in greeting. Several men in orange robes and white dhotis stand in the background, and a red mat with white lettering lies on the floor near the threshold.

A photograph of a long-haired person in saffron/orange robes seated cross-legged on a raised pink-topped platform under a corrugated roof. They wear an orange-and-white striped headwrap and a long rudraksha mala, holding the beads in their hands. Painted pillars with blue, red and green geometric patterns, white dove motifs and orange flower designs frame the scene. Behind them a bare-chested man in white dhoti works near a table, and a small pile of packets sits on the platform. The person is a seated devotee or sannyasi; their identity is not determined from appearance.
