A photograph of a mountain pilgrimage path on a wet cobbled road lined by green hillsides and a dry-stone retaining wall. A group of men carries a wooden palanquin draped in orange and yellow cloth, with a long-haired man in an orange shawl riding on it. Men in orange shawls, a dark blue raincoat and grey jackets walk alongside, and a brown mule with a red-and-blue saddle follows behind a figure in white robes and a white head covering. Mist rises over the forested slopes.

A wet mountain road winds through dense green forest on a steep hillside. A man in an orange robe and white dhoti, carrying an orange flag on a pole, leads a group of men walking uphill. Several men carry a palanquin-style litter on their shoulders, with a figure seated or reclining on it, and a man in an orange top walks beside them. A donkey with a rider and a woman in white are visible along the rock wall on the right. The scene suggests a pilgrimage procession on the Himalayan route. The people are dressed in ordinary trekking clothes and wrapped shawls, and the rocky cliff rises beside the path.2008-06-30A photograph of a group walking along a wet, narrow mountain road lined with dense green hillside vegetation and a dry-stone retaining wall on the right. Roughly a dozen people trudge uphill in a loose cluster, several in rain gear: one man in a dark blue raincoat with an orange cloth over his shoulder, another in a grey sweater, a man in a white jacket, and a woman in a red top. Some carry blue plastic sheeting or bundles. The road surface is glossy with puddles, and the scene reads as a pilgrimage trek in the hills. No identifiable figure is clearly presented as a person, and the people appear to be walking companions rather than a seated ritual scene.2008-06-30A photograph of a steep mountain road lined with a dry stone retaining wall on the right and green forested slopes rising on the left, with mist over distant peaks. A small group of people walks up the cobbled road carrying a palanquin-like litter draped in orange cloth; the carriers wear jackets, trousers and one wears a dark blue kurta, while a woman in a blue top rides or sits on the litter. A brown animal, possibly a horse or mule, follows behind the group. No individual can be confidently identified as a person from appearance, so no candidate is marked.2008-06-30A photograph of a wet mountain road lined with dense green forest. Several men carry a person seated in a wooden palanquin on their shoulders, while others walk alongside. The man at the left wears an orange plastic rain poncho over white dhoti-style clothing, and a man in the centre wears a grey jacket. A man on the palanquin at the right wears an orange rain poncho and waves. A brown mule follows behind on the right, beside a rock cliff face. The road is muddy with scattered debris, and a faint logo sits in the upper right corner of the image.2008-06-30June 30 20082008-06-30 +1 copiesJune 29 20082008-06-29 +2 copiesA photograph of a wet mountain road cut into a green, forested hillside in the Himalayas. Several men walk along the gravel track; the lead figure wears an orange-saffron robe and white dhoti and carries a yellow bag, while others in light shirts and dark trousers carry a wooden palanquin-style litter.

Several men carry a palanquin-style litter on poles, with a seated person draped in a bright yellow-and-blue cloth at its centre. Men in orange and dark jackets walk alongside, while others ride horses and mules up the trail behind them.
