A man in an orange saffron dhoti and shawl, with a gold necklace, carries a silver vessel with yellow flowers on a tray, while a smiling man in a purple silk dhoti with a red-and-gold border and a red shawl, wearing a rudraksha mala and gold ornaments on his arms, steps forward with his hand extended. A third person in white holds a tray of white flowers at the right edge, and a photographer is partly visible. The scene suggests a pada puja welcome.2011-12-14A photograph of a roadside arrival outside a parked silver car. On the left, a man in saffron-orange robes with a gold-bead necklace holds a silver kalasha topped with green leaves, a corn cob and a purple flower, and gestures toward the right. Facing him on the right, a man with long swept-back dark hair wears a red-and-gold sari-style garment, a long rudraksha mala and a gold necklace with a pendant, and a red tilak on his forehead; he holds his hands out in conversation. A white-clad attendant is partly visible at the far left edge, and an orange brick wall and a green sign stand behind. The scene reads as a pada-puja welcome, with the kalasha offered to the figure on the right.2011-12-12October 26 20112011-10-26Outdoor photo at a dusty compound with palm trees and a thatched hut behind.
