Night photograph of a group walking across a dirt ground lit by strings of small festoon lights and tall white light tubes on poles, with a woven bamboo fence on the left. Seven people walk in a loose line: several in plain white dhotis and shirts, and two in saffron/orange robes, one carrying a yellow shawl. Some figures hold their hands raised. The scene appears to be a nighttime procession or walk at a Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam centre. No individual can be confidently identified from appearance, so no a person candidate is asserted.2009-08-03Night photograph of a group walking across a sandy open ground toward a wooden frame structure with lights. Nine people in white dhotis and shirts, several with yellow or orange shawls and rudraksha-style necklaces, walk in a loose line. Two figures in saffron/orange robes lead the group, one on the left with a shaved head and one on the right with a long orange garment. Strings of lights and a lit white building are visible in the background. Nearby is a wooden pole frame.2009-08-03Night photograph of an outdoor ashram courtyard lit by a string of small orange lights strung through trees and a few green-tinted spotlights. Several people stand on dark ground: white-clad devotees in white dhotis and kurtas, and two saffron-robed sannyasis in orange garments, one at the centre-left and one at the right edge. Structures and scaffolding appear at the far left, with a yellow cloth on the ground at right. The scene reads as an evening gathering at an ashram event.2009-08-03August 03 20092009-08-03Night photo of a procession walking along an unpaved dirt road toward strings of lights and a banner. In front, a man in saffron robes wears a long marigold garland over his shoulders and bare feet; a rudraksha mala hangs around his neck. Beside and behind him, several men in saffron and orange robes carry a tray or offering, and a group of people in white dhotis and shirts walk behind them, with a figure in a yellow shirt at the left edge. Prayer flags are strung along a fence at the right. The scene shows a garlanded procession, but the figure's identity cannot be established from appearance alone.2012-01-08December 21 20072007-12-21December 09 20062006-12-09December 20 20062006-12-20A night-time photograph on a dirt road lit only faintly by a roadside light on a pole at left. On the right foreground, a man in saffron-orange robes and a saffron turban walks in profile, wearing rudraksha beads and orange sandals, with a shadow cast on the ground. Behind him, a line of four to five people in white dhotis and white clothing, some with orange shawls over their shoulders, walks in the same direction. The scene is dark and dusty, with dark shrubs at the right edge.2008-11-11Night photograph at an outdoor construction site with raw earth mounds and a bright floodlight. In the centre, a man wears an orange turban, an orange robe and a rudraksha mala, and holds a long wooden staff while standing on the dirt. Behind him and to the left, several men in white dhotis and white kurtas with orange shoulder cloths move about the site, and a few more in white and orange stand among piles of sand and a metal ladder. A cloth canopy hangs in the background under the light.2006-12-12A night photograph of a group walking along a dirt path in an open, unlit area. Several men in saffron-orange robes lead the group, with some wearing white or light-coloured clothing behind them; a few carry small lights and torches that cast bright spots on the ground. Some people in the background wear white with yellow shoulder cloths. The surrounding landscape is dark with scattered debris at left. No individual can be clearly identified as a person from appearance; the figures appear to be devotees or sannyasis in procession.2009-11-16January 08 20122012-01-08
