March 03 20182018-03-03Night photograph of two men walking on a red carpet outdoors, with blurred street lights behind them. The man in front wears a rust-orange dhoti and shawl, a tall black turban-style head covering with a red-and-white tilak, a long rudraksha mala, and beaded bracelets on his arms. Beside him, a bare-chested attendant in an orange dhoti and white tilak holds a tall golden-staffed ceremonial umbrella with multicoloured tassels of red, yellow, purple, green and white over the first man. The carpet is red with a striped runner beneath their feet. The scene reads as a procession or ceremonial walk.2018-03-03 +1 copiesMarch 03 20182018-03-03October 08 20172017-10-08October 08 20172017-10-08July 31 20152015-07-31October 08 20172017-10-08November 08 20132013-11-08February 08 20172017-02-08October 08 20172017-10-08Night procession under a large canopy with red, yellow and blue tassels held on a long gold pole.
