May 22 20062006-05-22Outdoor photograph of the front of Hotel Him Darshan, a multi-storey building with orange and teal trim, wooden arched windows, balconies and a rooftop line of hanging colourful paper streamers. A large blue-and-white banner reading Hotel Him Darshan hangs on the upper facade. In the foreground a white vehicle with a roof rack sits at left, and several men in everyday clothes walk past. At right, a man in an orange robe with a light scarf stands at the glass entrance doors, a possible sannyasi or devotee. The hotel is the visible landmark; whether the robed man is the a person cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.2008-06-29A photograph of a group walking along a narrow concrete footbridge in a hillside town, with green forested slopes behind and small shops and a pink-fronted building on the right. In the centre, a young man in an orange turban, orange shawl over a grey-and-orange jacket and orange robe walks forward, with the most prominent position in the group. To the left, a man in an orange kurta holds a walking stick and wears a grey jacket. Behind them a man in white dhoti and shawl carries a bag, and another man in orange robes carries a white bag. Signs read Alaknanda Mrityunjay-style shop boards and a restaurant sign. Several people are visible in the group, roughly five to ten, with others partly hidden behind.2008-07-08Outdoor photo of an ashram courtyard at dusk with cream-coloured buildings, red trim, and a white plastic chair on a verandah. Three sannyasis in saffron-orange robes walk along a concrete path; the one at right carries a red bag and papers, the middle one wears a rudraksha mala and carries a small blue bag. A man in white kurta and dhoti with an orange shawl stands at left holding a cardboard box. A white SUV is parked at right, and a poster with a framed portrait and garland hangs on the building wall at upper right.2008-07-10Outdoor photo at the entrance steps of a white colonnaded building with tall windows and potted plants. A man in an orange kurta and orange dhoti holds a small book and reads from it while walking down the steps. Beside him a long-haired man in a flowing orange shawl and sleeveless orange wrap descends with bare feet, with a grey-haired man in white and an orange shawl behind them and a uniformed official at the left edge. The long hair, orange wrap and ornate ritual dress are appearance cues for the Swamiji candidate, so this is a probable in-person match. Marigolds and plants line the stone pavement.2008-07-10October 27 20152015-10-27July 07 20082008-07-07July 07 20082008-07-07July 10 20082008-07-10A group of about eight people walks along a stone-paved street past a pink-washed building with a red swastika-like painted symbol and partial Devanagari lettering. In front, a man in an orange turban and an orange-saffron wrap over a grey padded backpack walks ahead, wearing orange robes and sports shoes. Beside him a woman wears white with an orange shawl, and others wear white kurta-pajama with orange scarves. A bearded older man in an orange sweater and dhoti walks near the right, and a man in orange robes carries a folded umbrella and a white plastic bag. The scene suggests a pilgrimage walk in the Himalayan town setting.2008-07-08July 10 20082008-07-10A photograph of an outdoor courtyard beside a red-painted building with an arched doorway and a hanging bell. In the centre, a barefoot man with long dark hair tied back wears an orange-red long-sleeved top and an orange wrap, holding a leopard-print cloth. To the left, a figure in an orange robe stands with back turned, and at right another man in orange garments stands with arms folded. Behind them, a man in white kurta and trousers stands near the arch, an older woman in a yellow-orange headwrap and orange dress stands in the middle distance, and a man in white sits on a step holding a stick. Trees and a railing frame the background.
