A figure with long dark wavy hair stands on an illuminated float or chariot framed by an ornate green-lit arch with red and green lighting. The figure wears a red and green draped garment and a beaded green-and-red shawl, one arm raised in a gesture while the other hand grips a trident-like staff. Behind is a dim wall with pale decorative motifs. Lights in red and green dominate the scene.

Long dark hair falls past the shoulders and a multi-strand beaded garland hangs at the chest. The figure wears a red-and-green draped cloth and a patterned bodice, and holds a trident-like staff in the right hand, while the left hand rests on the hip. Behind the stage is a decorative backdrop with bell motifs, and a tiger-striped cloth covers a platform in the foreground. The lighting tints the figure in red and green tones. The figure is a depiction in costume rather than a clearly identified individual, so this is not a confirmed candidate.2013-03-08September 26 20122012-09-26September 26 20122012-09-26March 16 20132013-03-16A photograph of a single performer standing on a stage in front of an ornate green and gold metallic arch lit with red and green light. The figure has long dark hair, a red-and-green leopard-print garment, red trousers, and multiple strands of green beaded necklaces. The figure holds a silver trident (trishula) upright in one hand. Small offerings in green and red sit on the platform at the base. The appearance is a costumed deity-style presentation, but the performer is not confidently identifiable from appearance alone, so no identity is asserted.2013-03-04 +1 copiesA smiling person with long, loose dark hair and a red bindi stands before an ornate red and gold embossed structure lit with red and green stage lighting. They wear a green and black tiger-striped garment, a layered beaded necklace with skull-like beads, and beaded wrist bands. One hand holds a peacock-feather fan or whisk on a metal rod, and the other holds a rope. Behind them a deity murti is partly visible. The image appears to be from a Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam event, with the a person cues of long hair, ornate ceremonial costume with rudraksha-style beads, and a distinctive dramatic presentation; the person is a performer or devotee in costume, not clearly identifiable.2013-05-11
