A photograph of a dirt path lined with grass and palm fronds, with a figure walking away from the camera. The walking person wears an orange-saffron robe and an orange headwrap, with a beaded necklace visible. Behind the path are white walls, a thatched-roof shelter, a stack of dried straw and piled wooden logs, and a parked silver vehicle sits at the left edge.

A man in a saffron-orange turban and matching orange wrap walks along a dirt path past green shrubs and a red brick edging. He wears a long rudraksha mala around his neck and orange sandals, and holds a small dark object in one hand. Trees and low buildings appear in the hazy background. Appearance cues include long dark hair, a turban, orange robes and rudraksha beads, so he is a probable Swamiji; the page notes the event, but the image does not show it.

A person in a flowing saffron-orange robe walks across a bare dirt clearing with a long wooden staff in the right hand, sandals on the feet, and dry grass and green trees with a wire fence behind. The figure has long dark hair and is shown in full length, with a leafy background and sunlight casting a shadow on the ground. No printed caption identifies this person, and the appearance cues are not sufficient to name anyone, so the role is given as a sannyasi walking outdoors.

A photograph of a dirt path through a green compound lined with palm fronds, flowering shrubs with yellow blooms, and a thatched-roof shelter. A single person in a flowing orange-saffron robe and matching orange head wrap walks away from the camera down the center of the path, with a white beaded necklace visible. Behind them stands a pile of dry straw, a whitewashed wall, and a red-painted low wall. The person's appearance is consistent with ascetic clothing, but identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so they are described by role as a figure in saffron robes.

A photograph of a dirt path through a tropical ashram grounds lined with palm fronds, green shrubs and yellow flowers. A single figure in a saffron-orange robe with an orange head wrap and a beaded necklace walks away from the camera down the path. Behind are a thatched-roof shelter, whitewashed and red-painted walls, a pile of dry straw and cut wood on the left, and grass at the edges.

Close photograph of a person's lower body walking on a sandy dirt path beside tall green grass. The person wears a long flowing saffron-orange robe and sandals with dark footbeds and tan straps. A wooden staff is visible at the left edge. Only legs and feet are visible, so no face or identity is shown.

A man walks along a dirt path beside a white-and-red edged curb, with green shrubs behind him. He wears a sleeveless saffron-orange robe wrapped across the chest, with the drape falling over his left shoulder, and a small red tilak mark on his forehead. His hair is long and swept back, and his eyes are lowered as he walks. Trees and a white wall appear in the background.

Close photo of a person's lower body walking on a rocky red-earth path beside green grass and shrubs. The person wears orange saffron cloth wrapped as a dhoti and a long orange top, with bare feet in black sandals, and holds a tall bamboo-like walking staff in the left of the frame. Other feet are partly visible at the top edge, and the scene suggests a pilgrimage walk.
