A photograph taken from a wooden boat on a river, with a bamboo canopy frame overhead. A smiling person in an orange hooded jacket and a maroon head wrap sits in the centre, wearing a saffron-orange garment; a man in a red jacket sits at the left edge holding an oar, and women in white shawls with embroidered borders and a person in a blue knit cap sit to the right. Beyond the boat, a riverbank with boats, people and dusty sand is visible under a clear sky. The swami appearance cues are not distinctive enough to assert a candidate, so the central figure is described by role only as a passenger.

A photograph taken from a wooden boat on a river, with a white-railed canopy overhead and a sandy riverbank with moored boats in the background. Three people sit under the canopy: a man in a red sweater with glasses on the left, a figure in a bright orange hooded sweatshirt with a red face covering and orange gloves holding the canopy rail in the centre, and a person in a light grey shawl on the right, with a child partly visible at the far right. The figure in orange wears a face covering and no visible turban, crown or rudraksha malas, so the appearance cues are insufficient and the identity is uncertain. Birds fly above the boat under a clear blue sky.2006 - Glimpses From Varanasi YatraJanuary 09 20062006-01-09A photograph taken on a boat on the river at Triveni Sangam, with a white tubular frame overhead. A figure in a bright orange hooded top and maroon face covering smiles while gripping a metal pole with orange gloves; the hood and covering suggest a sannyasi-style outfit, but the face is partly covered and the figure is not clearly distinguishable as a person. Around them, passengers in green and olive wraps and a man in a red jacket sit on the boat, and a man in a dark blue jacket stands at right. Behind, sandy riverbank with tents, a flagpole with a red-and-green flag, and distant utility poles under a pale sky.
