A man with long, swept-back dark hair, bare-shouldered in an orange cloth and wearing ceremonial gold bead necklaces, leans forward holding a silver kalasha-style vessel and a silver puja vessel on a tray. Beside him, a shaven-headed priest in orange robes with white forehead marks and glasses holds a small tray with a card or packet, and another man in orange with gold-bead necklace and maroon-edged cloth holds a silver dish. Behind them, a man in a red and gold turban and a person in yellow robes stand among onlookers, with orange flags visible overhead. A videographer's camera is at the left edge. The figure with long hair and orange cloth is a candidate for a person by appearance, but the identification is uncertain.2009-10-17January 25 20172017-01-25July 07 20092009-07-07A photograph of an outdoor flag-hoisting ceremony at a tree-shaded ground with a sandy floor and a white rangoli design. In the foreground, a man with long swept-back dark hair, a ceremonial gold-and-white garland, and a saffron sleeveless robe holds a silver cage-like vessel, while a younger man in white dhoti and saffron shawl stands beside him. A row of people in saffron and white robes stands in the background, with a tall pole and saffron flags at the left and right. Several people press their palms together in prayer. The printed caption at the top corner reads Flag Hoisting by Swamiji, and a portrait-style label is not visible in the frame. Several cues on the foreground man (long swept hair, saffron robe, ceremonial garland) are distinctive, so he is described as a person with the role of the person performing the flag-hoisting.2006-12-23July 07 20092009-07-07
