A photograph of a ceremony under a open-sided roofed pavilion. A seated man on an ornate gold throne with a red cushioned seat wears a rust-orange robe, a white flower garland and a long-haired topknot; his hands are pressed together in prayer and his eyes are closed. Before him, a bare-chested priest in a white dhoti with a gold border stands with hands extended, a flower garland around his neck. Nearby stands a second attendant in pink, and a small wooden cradle-like stand holds flower garlands and a blue cloth. A brass lamp stand and a colourful fringed canopy are visible, with a temple shrine on the left.

A seated man with long dark hair, a full beard, rudraksha-style garlands of white and pink flowers, and a rust-red robe smiles from an ornate gold throne with a fan-shaped gold back and red cushions, under a multicoloured fringed canopy. Two devotees in white dhoti with gold borders bow forward with folded hands, one wearing a green blouse behind them and a gold-bordered cloth. Marigold and pink flower garlands drape the seat and a wooden stand with offerings. The seated man is a person by appearance cues: long swept-back hair, ornate throne, and a presentation consistent with the page's context; the page does not state he is present, so this is set to unsure. Three people are visible.2017-04-17April 17 20172017-04-17April 17 20172017-04-17April 17 20172017-04-17A ritual scene under a open-sided canopy. A bare-chested priest in white dhoti with a gold border and a garland of white and pink flowers holds a brass lamp with a flame toward a seated man. The seated man sits on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion, hands pressed together at his face, wearing a saffron-red robe and a white flower garland, with long dark hair and a beard. A bare hand from another person is visible at the right edge. Marigold petals, flowers and a small plate of offerings lie on a striped mat beside a wooden stool with a blue cloth. Possible pooja setting with aarti. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with a saffron-clad, long-haired presentation, but the page does not confirm his identity.2017-04-17April 17 20172017-04-17April 17 20172017-04-17
