Photograph of a covered temple veranda with red pillars and whitewashed walls painted with large red Sanskrit-style letters. A central figure with long dark hair, wearing an orange robe and a rudraksha mala, stands barefoot on a red carpet with palms pressed together in namaskar. Around him, devotees in orange shawls and saffron robes stand with hands folded in prayer; a man in a green shirt and grey trousers and another in white kurta stand nearby. A small shrine, offerings and plastic bags sit at the side, and a yellow sign hangs on the wall. The figure's long hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala are cues that could match a person, so this is an appearance-based probable identification only.
