A photograph of a man seen from behind inside a whitewashed room with a grey stone floor and a wooden railing. He wears an orange turban and an orange cloth draped over his bare shoulders, with long dark hair falling down his back. He faces a large framed painting on the left showing an elderly bare-bodied man reclining on a bed with white pillows, beside a small wooden cabinet. Sunlight streams through a window with green wooden shutters on the right, and a small wall shrine sits near the ceiling.

Photograph taken from behind a person in a saffron-orange turban and saffron robe with long dark wavy hair falling over the shoulders, looking into a temple hall. Inside, a deity murti sits on a wooden platform decorated with white and red flower garlands, beside a copper kalasha-like vessel on the tiled floor. Carved stone pillars frame the entrance, and a dark wooden pillar with gold details stands in the hall. A partially visible figure in white stands at the left edge. A timestamp reads 9 7:18 in the lower right.

Inside a small room with white walls and framed portraits of saints in orange robes along the top wall, a man in an orange turban and orange wrap stands with hands folded in reverence beside a glass-fronted shrine. Inside the shrine a figure in orange lies reclining on a pink bed, with a garland of orange and yellow flowers framing the arch and rose petals scattered on the wooden base. Another man in orange clothing stands at the right edge with hands joined, and a partially visible person in orange stands at the left edge. The scene suggests darshan at a memorial shrine.

A photograph of a man in an orange saffron turban and orange robe standing in a plain whitewashed hall, turned toward a framed portrait of a woman with long hair, wearing an orange garment and beaded necklace, draped with white, yellow and red flower garlands. Below the portrait on a white-draped table stands a gold-framed deity murti dressed in orange with a red and gold garland. Two women in white saris with orange shawls stand nearby, one holding folded white cloths. Tables and chairs line the room behind them.

A photograph inside a plain white-walled room with a wooden floor. A man seen from behind in an orange turban and orange robe stands looking at a glass-fronted wooden casket with carved arched top, garlanded with green leaves and orange and yellow flowers. Inside the casket lies a painted or printed figure of a reclining saint in orange robes. Rose petals and marigold petals are strewn on the wooden table beneath. Framed pictures line the upper wall, and a pink flower arrangement stands in a vase by a barred window. A second person's head and orange garment appear at the right edge.

Indoor photo in a plain room with a corrugated metal ceiling. At left, a glass-fronted wooden case holds a life-size statue of a seated sannyasi in orange robes, an orange turban, a rudraksha mala and raised hand in blessing. In front stands a gilded framed portrait of a young figure in orange robes with a flower garland, hand raised, against tree roots; a yellow flower rests on the frame. Four men stand to the right: one in a brown shirt and cream shawl, one with a long beard in white ritual clothing with a marigold and red flower garland and orange cloth, and one in white with a red garland. Hanging brass items are visible near the ceiling.

A seated figure in orange-saffron robes, wearing an orange turban with a small red mark on the forehead and a long dark rudraksha mala, sits cross-legged on a white-cushioned wooden throne with carved floral scrollwork, raising one hand in a blessing gesture. The figure appears to be a statue or lifelike figure behind a glass partition, inside a plain room with a ceiling fan and a framed picture on the wall. A small deity figure with a dark face and jewelry stands at the left edge, and a brass lamp stand is visible at the right. Swamiji (probable) cues are the orange turban, saffron robes and rudraksha mala, but the figure is a depiction rather than a physically present person.
