A seated figure in a saffron-orange robe with long dark hair smiles broadly while placing both hands on a green mosaic-covered board held up by an elderly man in a cream shirt and white dhoti who bends toward them. Around them stand several men in white dhotis and shirts, a young man in a yellow shirt, and a young man in white with an orange shawl holding a shopping bag. The setting is a tiled-floor hall with white columns and plastic chairs.

Indoor photo in a pillared hall with a dark red carpet and white plastic chairs. In the foreground a seated figure with long dark hair wears an orange saffron wrap and sits facing away from the camera. Before them, a man in a light shirt and grey trousers holds up a folded pink-and-green patterned cloth bundle with a red cloth, while an older man in white dhoti and shirt bends to receive it. A shirtless young man with a sacred thread and white dhoti stands between them. Several men in white dhotis and light shirts stand around, watching. The seated figure in saffron is a candidate for the a person role, though the appearance is not clear enough to confirm it.2006-11-09November 10 20062006-11-10A photograph taken on a covered veranda with white columns. A bare-chested man in white dhoti stands at left, leaning in to receive something. An older man with white hair, wearing a white shirt, bends forward toward a seated woman in a saffron-orange sleeveless top who smiles and holds a small pink-wrapped packet. Other people stand behind, including a man in a light shirt and two figures in saffron and white. A woman in dark-rimmed glasses sits at the right edge. No identifiable a person depiction is visible, so the identity is left uncertain.2006-11-09November 09 20062006-11-09November 09 20062006-11-09November 09 20062006-11-09November 10 20062006-11-10November 09 20062006-11-09A smiling man with long dark hair, white vibhuti marks and a red kumkum dot on his forehead, wearing an orange saffron garment and a heavy ceremonial gold bead necklace, reaches across a low table to hand a bundle of Tamil newspapers to an older white-haired man in the foreground.

In the foreground a seated figure in a saffron-orange robe with long, swept-back dark hair holds up a framed painting of a blue-skinned deity with a golden crown and a bow, while a man in a light shirt and dark trousers on the left holds out a red-and-pink patterned gift box with a red ribbon. Around them stand several men in white dhotis and bare-chested devotees, some with sacred thread, plus a man in a white shirt on the right. The framed painting is presented as an offering. The saffron-robed figure's long hair, saffron robe and gesture are the main cues in this scene.2006-11-09Indoor photo in a pillared hall with a chandelier and arched windows. A seated figure in an orange saffron robe, with long dark hair swept back, receives a red cloth from a shirtless young man in a white dhoti with a white sacred thread. Around them stand older men in white shirts and dhotis, a woman in a white sari with a red border and gold bangles, and other men in white and pale yellow shirts. Several are gathered closely, with attentive, respectful postures. The orange-robed figure is seated on a white plastic chair beside a pink cloth-covered tray. Visual cues suggest a formal honouring or blessing moment.2006-11-09November 09 20062006-11-09
