A photograph of a young man in a saffron-orange turban and orange robes standing on a red-upholstered wooden throne-like chair, draped with long garlands of white flowers dotted with coloured blossoms in red, yellow and blue, plus a yellow and red garland at his feet. He raises one hand in blessing while a man in white shirt and white dhoti stands at left, touching his shoulder, and a figure in white stands at right edge. Behind is a blue banner with yellow Tamil lettering, a striped rug covers the floor, and fruit and a bag sit to the side. Nothing in the frame identifies the figure as the a person by visible cues beyond the saffron turban and garlanded honour.

A photograph of a young man in a saffron-orange turban and saffron dhoti standing on a red-and-gold throne-like chair, raising one hand in blessing. He wears long layered garlands of white, red, yellow and multicolour flowers draped from shoulders to feet, and a red and gold shawl hangs behind him. Two men in white shirts and dhotis stand at his left, one with clasped hands and glasses, and another partly visible at right. Flower petals and a red-and-yellow garland lie on the striped floor mat before a black tray.
