A group of young men in a river splash joyfully, arms raised, bare-chested or in wet clothes, with water spraying around them. Green trees, palms and a red-earth bank line the shore, with a bicycle parked on the bank at right and a few distant figures near the trees. No a person candidate is visible.

A photograph of a group of young men bathing in a river, standing waist-deep in greenish water and smiling at the camera. Several are shirtless or bare-chested, and one stands on the sandy bank at right, with a bicycle leaning nearby. Splashes of water rise at the right. Behind them are lush green trees, palm trees, a stone embankment at left, and a reddish-brown dirt slope under a partly cloudy sky.2005-04-09June 04 20162016-06-04A photograph of men bathing in a broad, greenish river at a holy confluence. Roughly a dozen shirtless or lightly clothed men swim, dip and wade across the rippling water, some with hands raised to their heads, some splashing. The scene is bright and open, with no temple, a person or ritual objects visible.2007-02-02June 02 20162016-06-02June 02 20162016-06-02A photograph of a group standing waist-deep in a muddy river with a moored barge and large black buoys behind them. A man in the centre-right wears a black long-sleeved shirt, black trousers and a red-orange beaded necklace, with both arms spread wide as if speaking to the group. Beside him a man in a white vest presses his palms together at his forehead, and another man bare-chested with a dark cord necklace also has his hands folded. A woman in a black swimsuit stands near the middle, and a man with a black swimsuit at the far left is partly submerged. A grey-haired man in glasses and a black shirt stands at the far right with his arms crossed. Sunlight glints on the brownish water.2015-05-18June 04 20162016-06-04June 02 20162016-06-02June 04 20162016-06-04June 04 20162016-06-04June 04 20162016-06-04June 04 20162016-06-04
