Close profile photograph of a smiling man with long dark hair, a white tilak on the forehead and a small red bindi-style mark, wearing a pink and white flower garland and a saffron-orange cloth at the shoulder. Behind him a blurred gold-coloured deity murti with a crown and necklaces, and a bright red dot marking its face. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha-style beaded garland and ceremonial floral garland cues are visible on the seated man. Setting appears to be a temple or satsang hall.

Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), with long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and a flower garland as cues, shown in the foreground as a devotee-style setting in a temple.2017-05-22May 28 20172017-05-28May 22 20172017-05-22May 22 20172017-05-22May 28 20172017-05-28Close profile photo of a bare-shouldered man with long dreadlocked hair piled high, a white and red tilak on his forehead, eyes closed and head bowed. He wears a rose-and-white flower garland with gold beads over a rust-red cloth draped on his shoulder. Behind him a large gold-coloured deity murti with a raised hood-like crown stands beside blurred figures in white clothes and a seated person in the foreground. The blurred background suggests a temple ritual setting.2017-05-22A photograph of a long-haired man in a red-brown robe wearing a large garland of pink and white flowers with gold beads, seen from the side as he smiles and gestures with one raised hand. Beside him stands a large polished gold deity murti with a crown-like headdress, and a gold lamp stand is in the foreground. A second man with white tilak marks on his forehead and gold necklaces sits at the left edge, hand to his ear, while white-clad people are blurred in the background. The appearance of the central figure is not clearly distinctive enough to assign a person identity, so the role is given as a man in a garland. Six or fewer people are visible.2017-05-28May 22 20172017-05-22May 28 20172017-05-28
