Photo of a seated figure in saffron-orange robes with long dark hair sitting on a red-cushioned throne, placing a hand on the head of a bald seated man wrapped in a checked shawl and sitting in a wheelchair. A woman in a green sari with red border bends forward with hands together beside him, and a woman in white with a yellow scarf stands behind the throne. A wooden offering tray in front holds apples, wrapped sweets and rudraksha malas, and a gold ornate chair backrest appears at left against a red backdrop. Scene suggests a blessing or darshan exchange. The robed figure on the throne is a person by appearance cues of long swept hair and saffron clothing, but the face and framing are not clear enough to confirm.2009-12-07A seated figure in an orange saffron robe sits on a gold-trimmed throne with red cushions in front of a large painted backdrop of a banyan tree.

A long-haired man in an orange saffron robe with a rudraksha mala sits on an ornate gilded golden throne with red cushions, and appears to be the a person, given the long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala. Around him, devotees line up: a man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands at the throne, a monk in orange robes stands at the left beside a man in white with an orange shawl, and several women in white saris with gold borders and one in a green floral sari stand in a row, some with hands folded.Evening scene on a red-carpeted stage in front of an orange backdrop.

A young man in a saffron-orange robe stands behind, and a woman in a brown sari stands to the right beside a golden ornate chair decorated with white and red flowers and green leaves.

Around the stage, several people sit or stand: a bald man in white with an orange shawl kneels in front, a man in white shirt and white dhoti sits to the right, a woman in a pink top and a girl in a red plaid dress sit on the left, and an older woman in a dark green sari sits near the throne. Standing to the left are men in white with orange shawls and a man in saffron robes.

A figure in an orange sleeveless garment with long dark hair sits on a red-draped seat at left, one arm raised toward a seated man in a wheelchair. The man wears a checked grey-and-white shawl over dark trousers and a red-thread wrist band, and looks up at the group. A woman in a green sari with a red-and-gold border stands in the foreground holding a green garland, and another woman in a red-and-gold sari stands beside her.

Several devotees stand before him in a line: a man in white dhoti and shirt and an older man with white hair in white clothes assist near the throne, a woman in green sari with blue border and another in a brown patterned sari kneel or bow with hands joined in namaskar, a woman in white and a woman in a red sari with gold embroidery stand to the right. A man in orange cloth stands at far left. The scene reads as a devotional reception or padapuja-style honour, with the seated figure receiving the devotees. The seated figure shows long dark hair and a red mark on the forehead, and the appearance is consistent with the presentation of a person, though this is uncertain from appearance alone and the page does not state he was present.2009-08-31A photograph of a seated man in a wheelchair wrapped in a checked white and beige shawl, with a long-haired figure in saffron-orange robes raising one hand toward him from a red-draped seat. A woman in a green sari with gold border stands beside the wheelchair, and a man in white with a yellow shawl stands behind. A tray on the left holds apples, sweets and wrapped candies. A pink-clad woman sits at the far right. Red fabric draping and a gold ornament frame the background, with stage scaffolding overhead.

Other women in white sarees and a man in white shirt and white dhoti stand nearby, some with hands folded. The seated figure has appearance cues (orange robes, swept-back hair, rudraksha-style styling) but identity is not established from the image alone, so the a person value is unsure. Visible people total about six.2009-07-12A stage event with an orange backdrop and a flower-decorated golden throne at right.

A man in a white shirt bends over the wheelchair, and a girl in white sits at lower left. Garlands of marigolds and roses decorate the throne and the foreground. The orange-robed man has long, swept-back hair and ornate adornments, a person candidate, but his appearance is not conclusive enough to confirm.2009-07-25August 27 20082008-08-27
