February 04 20102010-02-04Photograph taken from behind of two people walking away across a temple terrace at dusk toward a white gopuram tower under a pale pink and lavender sky. The person on the left wears a saffron-orange dhoti and matching upper cloth with a maroon-striped border, with short dark hair. The person on the right wears a long sleeveless orange garment with long dark hair. Beside them, a white carved temple pillar with relief sculpture stands in the foreground, and palm trees and white planters line the left side.2010-02-05February 04 20102010-02-04Night photograph of a long-haired man in an orange-saffron cloth with gold border and a garland, palms pressed together in prayer with eyes closed, standing beside a tall white-wrapped pillar topped by a bronze lamp bowl with a large flame.

In the foreground, a man in white kurta stands at left, looking toward the temple. Two people in orange robes stand near the centre, one with long dark hair facing the temple, another in orange further right beside a figure in white. At far right, a person in yellow-orange shawl with a maroon border stands with others in white. Palm fronds hang at the upper left. Appearance-based candidate: a person in orange robes with long dark hair may be a person but the face and build cannot be confirmed, so a person is unsure. Visible people are about six.2010-02-03September 14 20092009-09-14December 10 20112011-12-10A person in a sleeveless saffron-orange wrap descends white stone steps in a garden courtyard. Long dark hair falls past the shoulders and a small red mark is on the forehead; the head is bowed and one hand gathers the drape at the waist. Behind is a white temple gateway with carved wooden doors and a painted pillar, flanked by tall green palms and shrubs. Warm sunlight falls across the scene.2010-02-04A photograph of a temple scene in bright sunlight. A tall white gopuram with a tiered tower and small finials stands at left beside palm and green foliage. In the foreground a figure in a flowing orange-red robe with a long garland of yellow-orange flowers stands on a white stone step, looking upward toward the sky; long dark curly hair is visible and the face is washed out by glare. Two men in white shirts and white dhotis stand to the left on the terrace, one holding a small child, with hands folded. Birds are scattered across the pale sky and a white railing and potted plants line the terrace.2006-09-29
