Low-angle photograph of a tall copper dhvaja stambha (flagstaff) rising against a partly cloudy blue sky, with a red-orange flag at its top. A standing man in an orange-red unstitched robe and a beaded rudraksha-style mala around his neck grips the red rope that hoists the flag. Palm fronds appear at right, and a second robed figure in reddish-brown cloth stands at the right edge. The copper pillar is carved with bands and a lower relief panel, and a metal canopy edge is visible at top left. Consistent with a flag-hoisting ceremony.2010-10-18 +1 copiesA tall copper flagstaff, ornately ribbed and topped with a carved finial, rises against a partly cloudy sky during a flag-hoisting ceremony.

Palm trees frame the scene and a covered structure edges the left. The base is carved with a seated deity figure in a niche. A camera operator is partly visible at lower left. Two physical people are present.2010-10-18 +1 copiesJanuary 04 20152015-01-04October 18 20102010-10-18 +1 copiesFebruary 23 20152015-02-23October 09 20082008-10-09March 05 20112011-03-05 +1 copiesApril 14 20132013-04-14 +3 copiesDecember 23 20082008-12-23February 23 20152015-02-23February 23 20152015-02-23Outdoor photo of a tall copper flagstaff rising against an overcast sky, topped with a small wooden canopy and a red-orange flag.
