A figure stands in heavy violet haze on a darkened stage, seen from behind with long dark hair and a wrap or cloth wound around the head. A metallic armlet or ornament is visible on the upper arm, and a thin vertical rod or staff rises at the left edge. The purple lighting and fog dominate the frame, leaving only the silhouette of the person clearly visible.

December 07 20152015-12-07A photograph taken in a heavy purple-violet haze. A figure seen from behind, with long dark matted locks falling past the shoulders, wears a patterned wrap or headpiece with pink and white markings on top of the head. Bare upper arms show beaded bracelets in brown and rust tones. The light is diffuse and the background is an empty smoky purple field. Whether this is an in-person presence or a depiction cannot be determined from the image; the appearance cues are insufficient to identify anyone. The bottom-right corner carries a copyright notice.2015-12-07December 11 20122012-12-11A purple-blue lit stage scene filled with haze. A figure with long dark hair, seen from behind and partly in profile, stands at the right side holding a silver trident (trishul) upright in one hand. Behind them a large painted backdrop shows a deity with multiple arms, adorned with jewelry and a tiger-skin cloth, painted in warm tones. The figure wears a sleeveless dark garment and bangles on the arms. No clearly visible face or identifiable a person candidate is shown, so the person is described by role only as a figure holding a trident.2016-02-04February 04 20162016-02-04December 07 20152015-12-07December 07 20152015-12-07A figure stands in a dense violet-blue haze, holding a tall silver trident with a second smaller trident at the left edge. The figure wears a dark head covering, layered beaded necklaces and a small star-shaped pendant, with a textured silver-toned garment. The lighting and smoke suggest a Kalabhairava darshan tableau, possibly a costumed presentation or deity murti rather than a clearly identifiable living person.2015-05-21December 07 20152015-12-07February 04 20162016-02-04 +2 copiesFebruary 04 20162016-02-04A blue-lit stage scene shrouded in drifting fog. In the foreground, a figure seen from behind with very long dark hair falling to the waist stands with one hand on the hip and holds a tall silver trident. Behind them a large painted backdrop shows a multi-armed deity murti seated with a bull, surrounded by robed sages and forest trees. The lighting is deep violet and the mood is theatrical. The figure's identity is not determinable from appearance alone, so the presence of a person is treated as uncertain.2016-02-04 +2 copies
