Outdoors under palm trees, a woman in an orange-brown sari and a heavy gold necklace stands beside an ornate copper-coloured shrine pillar wrapped in a green and gold cloth. Garlands of white, yellow marigold and red flowers hang on the pillar, and she holds a lit oil lamp with a flame in one hand and a small brass bell in the other. A stone deity figure sits at the lower left, and a second person is partly visible at the right edge.

Outdoors under palm trees and a bright sky, a smiling man with long dark hair stands beside an ornate reddish-brown wooden shrine pillar draped with white and gold-bordered cloth and garlanded with yellow marigolds. He wears a dark orange-brown garment, a brown rudraksha-style mala, and a long white and red flower garland. In his right hand he holds a brass oil lamp with a tall flame, and in his left a small brass bell. The scene reads as a temple-style ritual of aarti offered beside the decorated pillar. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron-orange clothing and rudraksha mala, ceremonial garlands; performing aarti.2013-04-14April 14 20132013-04-14April 21 20152015-04-21April 21 20152015-04-21A smiling person stands outdoors among tall palm fronds, holding a silver lamp with a flame in one hand and a small silver bowl in the other.
