A man with long, swept-back dark hair stands before a terracotta-red temple wall beside a doorway with a small shrine inside. He wears a saffron-orange shawl draped over his shoulders and a long rudraksha mala hanging to his waist, with a red bindi and white markings on his forehead. Wisps of incense smoke drift across the lower left of the frame.2011-06-05October 24 20112011-10-24A man in saffron-orange robes stands outdoors with hands clasped at the waist, looking to the side with a gentle smile. He wears multiple strands of rudraksha beads, a gold-toned armlet and bangles, and a red bindi with white forehead marking. His long dark hair is swept back. A large green banana leaf hangs behind him, with a red-and-white painted wall and a framed picture of a seated deity murti on the wall. A stone ledge with water is in the foreground.
