The seated figure on the left, with long hair tied back, gold chain necklace and white forehead markings, extends a hand toward a kneeling woman in a pink top whose palms are pressed together in reverence. The figure on the right is bald, wears a red beaded headband, rudraksha mala and gold necklace, and holds a small white offering in one hand over a brass bowl.

A shaved-headed man in an orange-red robe with gold border stands on an orange mat, both arms raised with hands at his head, holding flower garlands and wearing a rudraksha mala and a gold ceremonial necklace. Beside him a woman in a white sari with green border kneels and holds a tray of pink flowers. Behind, an orange-robed man with long hair and gold necklace looks up, and several people stand near a doorway. A white cooler sits in the foreground. The man in the centre has a shaved head and white ritual look rather than distinctive long hair or crown, so no a person identification is made here.2012-06-02May 28 20122012-05-28May 14 20122012-05-14 +3 copiesJune 04 20122012-06-04A photograph inside a temple-style hall with polished stone walls and a white carved doorway.
