A photo taken at night in a storeroom-like doorway lined with shelves of pots and blue buckets, with a white sack behind. A bald-headed man in a plain white shirt and white trousers holds a shallow cream bowl and stands at the centre facing a bearded man on the right with very long dreadlocked hair, bare chest, orange saffron cloth and a rudraksha mala, who gestures with open palms. Behind them a dreadlocked man with a bare chest and a gold necklace and an orange-robed man with a long gold chain hold small lamps or items, and a woman in a maroon outfit stands at the left edge. A man in a light blue shirt is partly visible at the left foreground.

Night-time photograph at a container yard where a shipping container's open doors reveal shelves stacked with boxes and wrapped bundles. Two figures in saffron-orange robes stand inside the container holding a large ornate golden vessel, apparently a kalasha or temple-style pot, between them. Several onlookers in the foreground, including a man in a light blue shirt, a man in a white t-shirt, and an older man in a white dhoti with an orange-brown shawl, watch from outside, along with a woman in a patterned blouse and others partly visible at the edges. A blue container stands to the right.

Night-time photo at an open storeroom doorway lined with steel shelves of plastic and steel bowls and rolled blue hoses. On the right, a bare-chested man with long dark braided hair, a full beard and a rudraksha mala, wearing a saffron-orange cloth, holds his hands together in front of him. Beside him, a shaved-headed sannyasi in orange robes and beaded malas holds a small lit oil lamp. A man in a white shirt holds a white plate, and another man in white stands at the left edge. Several people in the foreground, including a figure in a light shirt, watch the ritual while another person in the background also wears orange.

A photo of a temple doorway with a dark stone wall and a framed deity picture above. Two saffron-robed figures stand in the foreground. The man on the left wears orange clothes, rudraksha beads, round glasses and a grey beard. The central figure in long orange robes with dark flowing hair holds a white plate with yellow fruit and reaches toward a man in a white shirt and white dhoti who offers a folded paper. Another saffron-clad attendant stands at right, and a few people are visible in the dim doorway behind. Offering and temple visit setting.

Photo of a food distribution at an ashram event. In the foreground, a man with long greying hair and a beard, wearing an orange shawl and a rudraksha mala, holds out a paper plate of yellow rice and vegetables. Behind a steel serving pot, a man in a white kurta and orange shawl ladles food, and a woman in an orange sari-style shawl beside him serves from a large vessel. Several saffron-robed men stand behind the table, one holding a small piece of food, with a colourful cloth hanging in the background. Several people in orange and white garments distribute food to devotees.
