A procession on red-painted steps in an outdoor temple setting. A standing man in the centre wears a rust-red dhoti and draped cloth with gold-toned borders, a long gold necklace, a rudraksha mala, gold armbands and a long dark hair, with a red and white forehead mark. Behind him a shirtless attendant in an orange cloth holds a tall gold pole supporting an ornate red and gold canopy with multicoloured tassels, while another orange-clad attendant stands nearby. Dark lingam-shaped stones and a white stone pillar with a golden finial line the steps, and a chain-link fence and green foliage sit behind. The page indicates Krishna Janmashtami celebrations, but no festival detail is visible in the frame beyond the procession and canopy.2017-08-14Photo taken from low on a red-painted stone staircase looking upward.

A man in the centre wears a rust-red dhoti and a matching shawl with gold armbands, bracelets and a gold necklace with a beaded mala, and his eyes are closed. Behind him, two attendants in orange-saffron cloth carry a gold pole supporting a red and gold embroidered umbrella with fringed tassels. Chain-link fencing and foliage stand in the background under an overcast sky. The central man has long dark hair with distinctive gold and ornamental adornments, consistent with the page's Krishna Janmashtami procession context, though appearance alone is not conclusive.2017-08-14December 12 20162016-12-12A photograph of a man in a rust-red robe with a long white-and-pink flower garland standing at the top of a red stone staircase, hands pressed together in front of his chest. Long dark hair falls past his shoulders and he wears gold armbands and a gold bracelet. Beside him a woman in a red sari with an orange-red shawl reaches toward his arm. On the right a shirtless man in an orange cloth draped over his shoulder stands near a large multicolored canopy with red, yellow, teal and blue fringed tassels. Small dark stone lamps or kalasha-like objects sit on the steps and a metal fence and oleander bushes with pink flowers frame the scene. The man in the robe is an appearance-based a person with long swept hair, a garland and ornate gold adornments, so this is an in-person candidate.2017-08-14June 26 20172017-06-26August 14 20172017-08-14Outdoor photo of a red-stepped temple staircase lined with black stone lingam bases and brass vessels.
