A bearded man in an orange-brown robe wears a thick garland of red roses and yellow and white flowers, with a red-and-white tilak and a dark vertical mark on his forehead. He smiles with eyes closed while a man at the left edge, partially visible, raises a hand near his head in a blessing gesture. Warm golden string lights glow behind, and an ornate golden object sits at the right. The composition suggests a ritual blessing moment at an ashram setting, with a flower garland and a brass lamp visible at the left edge. Whether the robed man is a person is uncertain from appearance alone.2018-03-02March 02 20182018-03-02December 23 20162016-12-23March 02 20182018-03-02Close photo of a smiling man with a shaved-looking white forehead band (vibhuti/tilak) and a red dot on his brow, wearing an orange-red shawl over bare shoulders and heavy garlands of white, yellow, pink and red flowers with green leaves.
