A photograph of a ceremonial honouring at an indoor hall with deep red curtains. A seated man in a red-orange turban and a gold-and-maroon silk shawl with a gold border smiles broadly while an older man in a white shirt drapes or adjusts a garland-adorned shawl around him. A man in a white shirt with glasses and a lanyard stands at right, and a gold-carved throne-like chair with a gold canopy is behind the seated figure. Hands of another person in teal silk appear in the foreground. A seated figure wearing a red-orange turban and garland is shown, with appearance cues not sufficient to confirm identity, so the a person field is unsure.

A photograph of a group of men in white shirts and dhotis gathered closely around a central figure. The central person wears a red-maroon turban, a gold-yellow silk shawl over a dark maroon garment, and a multicolored garland of red, white and yellow flowers. Several men in white are garlanding or draping him with yellow cloth, while others stand with hands folded in greeting. Behind them stands a large ornate gold throne with carved backrest against red curtains, and a bald man in saffron-orange robes with white tilak marks on his forehead and arm stands at the right edge. A screen with colourful imagery is visible at the top. The central figure's appearance is consistent with the page's reference to a person, but the face and garment cues are not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so this remains uncertain.2015-08-09August 09 20152015-08-09A man in an orange-red turban and saffron wrap stands bare-chested with a gold-beaded necklace and rudraksha-style ornaments, handing a white gift box with gold printing to a older man with grey hair and glasses who bends forward in deference. The older man wears a green and gold silk shawl over a white garment and holds a small bowl of bananas. Behind them is a large gold ornate throne with a red velvet backdrop and a gold chandelier, with several other people in the background, including a man in white and others wearing glasses.2015-08-09A figure with long swept-back dark hair, wearing a maroon dhoti, a patterned pink-and-grey shawl, a yellow flower garland and a rudraksha-style necklace, smiles while handing a folded blue cloth to a man in a red and gold silk shawl who presses his palms together in greeting. Two older men in white shirts and white dhotis stand nearby; one on the left holds a silver tray with offerings. Behind them is an ornate gold throne with lion carvings and a painted backdrop with a deity figure.

In the foreground, a man in a rust-red turban and a beaded red-brown necklace smiles while holding a large gold sequined garland-like bundle. Facing him, an older man with grey hair and dark-rimmed glasses bows slightly, wearing a turquoise gold-bordered shawl over a white dhoti. Several other men in white stand in the background. Whether the turbaned figure is a person cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so the identification is left unsure.2015-08-09August 09 20152015-08-09June 21 20172017-06-21 +1 copiesAugust 09 20152015-08-09A photograph of a smiling person in a brown-orange robe and tall orange-red turban, with a red bindi, wearing a pink flower garland and gold-bead necklaces, placing an orange shawl over the shoulders of a man in a white shirt who bows his head.
