A photograph of a crowd at an outdoor event. In the centre, a person in an orange-red sleeveless garment with a long floral garland of white, green and purple flowers bows forward with hands pressed to the forehead, gripping a silver metal pole. Around them, many men in white kurtas and dhotis, some wearing lanyard ID badges and rudraksha malas, watch closely. A person in saffron-orange robes stands at the far left edge, and a bald man stands in the background near a dark stage structure. Gold armlet and bangles are visible. Several people in the crowd are partly visible at the frame edges.

In the centre, a figure in an orange turban and orange robe, hands pressed together in anjali, wears a green and pink flower garland and a gold pendant, with a long-haired figure in orange on the right. Around them, men and women in white and saffron walk closely together; one man on the left raises a long wooden pole. Concrete figures, clothing colours and garlands dominate the frame; the scene reads as a ratha yatra or temple procession.2006-09-24July 07 20092009-07-07February 05 20092009-02-05A photograph of a procession on a dirt path beside a chain-link fence, with orange flags visible behind. A long-haired man in an orange saffron cloth and a long white garland with red flowers and a gold-bead mala stands at left, smiling, with his right hand raised near his side; the presentation cues include long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ornate gold-bead mala, so this is a probable Swamiji (probable) in person. Around him, devotees in white dhotis and white shirts with lanyards and rudraksha-style malas stand with hands folded in namaskar, one man bowing deeply. Another orange-robed figure stands at right edge and a person kneels at lower left. Yellow petals lie on the ground.2009-12-29July 07 20092009-07-07 +1 copiesA procession on an outdoor road with a crowd of devotees behind.

The central figure has long swept-back dark hair, a red vermilion mark on his forehead, and a shawl in red with blue trim; he appears to be bestowing a blessing. Around them, several men in white shirts and dhotis stand with hands joined in anjali or outstretched, one with a white vibhuti line on his forehead. At far right, a younger man in an orange robe with a shaved head, white forehead markings and a gold necklace stands beside him.
