Both wear white dhoti and shawl-like cloth with gold borders, rudraksha malas, gold bangles and white sacred ash markings on the forehead and arms. The man on the left wears thin-rimmed glasses. A brass bell and ritual items sit at the lower right against a deep red wall. Two people are visible.2011-11-28Three men sit in a row before a red-orange wall during a puja. The central man, eyes closed, wears a saffron-orange robe and has white tripundra lines and a red bindi on his forehead. On the left, a bespectacled man in white dhoti and shawl with maroon borders, wearing gold beaded necklaces and white ash markings on his forehead and arms, looks down. On the right, another man in a white dhoti with maroon borders and gold beaded necklace, with a red mark and white lines on his forehead, sits close behind the central figure. No figure in the frame has distinctive a person cues such as long hair, crown, rudraksha mala or ceremonial gold necklace beyond the ordinary gold beads worn by the priests, so identity is uncertain.2010-09-03September 23 20112011-09-23November 08 20112011-11-08November 17 20112011-11-17November 18 20112011-11-18November 24 20112011-11-24October 13 20112011-10-13October 25 20112011-10-25October 13 20112011-10-13
