Outdoor street scene during a welcome. A person in a flowing saffron-orange robe with long dark hair stands with palms pressed together in greeting, face lowered, while confetti in pink, green, yellow and purple falls around them. Men in white dhotis and shirts crowd close; one at left, beside a silver car, holds his hands near the vehicle, and a man in a checked shirt and another in a turquoise shirt watch from the right. A red-and-white pole and a striped canopy frame appear at upper right, with trees and a building behind.

Outdoor street scene on a dirt road lined with trees. A man with long dark hair and an orange saffron robe stands with palms pressed together in greeting, beside a silver SUV whose window is open. Around him, men in white dhotis and white shirts, one with a rudraksha-style mala, press forward, and a man in a light-blue shirt waves a large white yak-tail chamara. A red-and-white ceremonial canopy and red and white flags are visible overhead. Scattered petals lie on the ground. The orange-robed figure is shown in the appearance-based label a person, presented with long swept hair and saffron clothing, greeted by devotees at a car.

A photograph of a street-side welcome beside a white car. A woman in an orange sari with a long white and multicoloured garland stands with hands folded in namaskar. Around her, a man in white dhoti and shirt with an orange shawl bends forward, and a young man in orange robes kneels at the car door. Other devotees in white and saffron clothing and a woman in a yellow and pink sari stand nearby, several with hands joined, and a child sits on the ground in pink. Some hold small offerings and flowers. The scene is an outdoor devotional greeting on a dusty road in front of a building.

Outdoor photo on a dirt ground in front of an orange and yellow tented pavilion, with trees and a white vehicle behind. A central man in saffron-orange robes, an orange turban and a red-and-white flower garland stands with palms pressed together in namaste, smiling. Around him people in white dhotis and shirts, a woman in a gold-bordered sari, and uniformed police officers greet with folded hands. A young man at left wears a yellow shawl over white clothes. Physical figures are sharply visible; the orange-robed central man shows distinctive saffron clothing, orange turban and garland cues, so he is a probable Swamiji candidate in person.

Photo of a welcome at an outdoor entrance with pale flooring scattered with flower petals. A long-haired figure in a saffron-orange robe with a red-and-white flower garland and a red bindi stands centre, smiling and extending a hand toward the crowd. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron robe and a flower garland. Around him, men in white dhotis and shirts and a man in beige shirt-and-trousers holding a silver tray with a kalasha-style vessel, red flowers and a green leaf greet the visitor. A white car and a building with columns stand behind, and a few more men in orange and white fill the background.

Outdoors beside a silver SUV, a smiling figure in saffron-orange robes with a long multicolour flower garland (yellow, pink, purple, white) and a rudraksha mala is being garlanded and steadied by a person in white clothing. Around them, white-clad men with bare upper bodies and gold-bordered dhotis, one holding a mala, press hands together in greeting, and a camera operator films from the right. A tent and a brick wall stand in the background, and the person with long hair and orange robes and a saffron head wrap is a probable Swamiji, based on the flower garland, saffron robes, long swept hair and rudraksha beads.

A photograph of a street scene on a paved road beside parked silver cars under a cloudy sky. In the centre, a figure in a long saffron-orange robe and a matching orange turban, with long dark hair and a rudraksha mala, walks with palms pressed together in greeting. Around them, men in white shirts and white dhotis greet with folded hands and bowed heads; one man wears a yellow rosette. Palm trees and low white buildings line the road behind them. The figure has distinctive saffron clothing, long hair, and a mala, so the appearance-based candidate is a person, walking and greeting visitors on the road.
