A person in orange-saffron robes with a maroon-edged border stands with their back mostly to the camera, bending over a large grey boulder in a hilly, tree-dotted landscape under a cloudy sky. They hold a small metal or brass vessel and appear to be pouring or offering something onto the rock, with a thin stream visible. Shaved or short-cropped dark hair is visible. Green shrubs and a hillside rise behind, and a small reddish-orange cloth is on a bush at right.

A man in an orange saffron dhoti and shawl stands at right, pouring water from a brass vessel over a large dark boulder, with water streaming down the rock. Green palm fronds and leafy trees fill the foreground. At right edge, a small shrine with colourful bunting and a framed picture of a figure is visible. The man is an appearance-based candidate for a person with only a few cues (orange clothing, a sannyasi-style wrap), so identity is uncertain.2008-05-19A man in saffron-orange robes pours water from a small vessel over a large dark boulder in a dry hillside setting with scrub trees and a palm-like plant in the foreground. Behind him on the right stands a small shrine or palanquin-like structure with a colourful striped canopy, red and gold decorations, and a framed image inside. The hill rises in the background under a pale sky. The scene suggests an abhishekam-style offering of water to a sacred rock. The man has short hair and his face is partly turned away. No other people are visible.2008-05-19May 19 20082008-05-19May 19 20082008-05-19May 19 20082008-05-19A photograph taken outdoors on a hillside with a rocky, scrubby mountain rising behind green trees and bushes. In the lower right, a person seen from behind, with short dark hair, wears an orange saffron wrap draped over the shoulders and rests a hand on a large brown boulder that has white flowers scattered on it. A small white building sits on a distant slope and a village of low buildings lies in the valley below.2008-05-19May 19 20082008-05-19May 19 20082008-05-19
