Outdoor photo of a smiling man with long dark hair and a white vertical tilak on his forehead, a dark spot between his brows, wearing a dark garment at his neck. Yellow flower petals fly around his face and head, and foliage is visible behind him. In the foreground, a man in an orange shirt is turned away, and an orange-clothed figure blurs the left edge. The appearance-based cues of long hair and tilak do not establish an identity, so this is recorded as an unsure candidate in person.

January 16 20182018-01-16Photograph of a bare-chested man with long dreadlocked hair decorated with yellow flower petals, wearing a thick red and yellow garland of flowers around his neck and a gold-coloured waist cloth. He has white sacred ash horizontal marks and a red vertical mark on his forehead, and smiles while holding out a brass plate. Around him stand men in orange shirts and onlookers, one man in a white cap, and a person raising a mobile phone. The setting appears to be an outdoor street gathering with a loudspeaker and a painted wall behind. The man's distinctive long hair, floral garland and ornate clothing are visible cues, but the page does not indicate a person's presence, so identity is uncertain.2017-09-06Close photograph of a smiling man with eyes squeezed shut, wearing a thick garland of white, pink and yellow flowers over a rust-orange cloth.

A man with long, wavy dark hair and a full moustache and beard smiles broadly with eyes half-closed, wearing a red-brown garment, a gold chain necklace, and a red-orange tilak mark on his forehead. A thin gold-and-red bracelet is visible on his wrist, and an orange cloth draped over a yellow garment is near his arm. Around him, devotees press close; one man in the right foreground wears a white head cloth, and a woman on the left wears a red headband. A red flower is raised at the top right. The page identifies this as a person, but the visible cues only partially match; this is an appearance-based probable match.2017-05-26A photograph of a crowd at a temple procession.
