A thin rope runs down the pole. At the bottom, a crowd of onlookers gazes upward, including a woman in a white sari with hands joined in prayer, and a man with a video camera on a tripod at the left. Trees and a palm fringe the right and left edges, with overhead wires strung across the background.2009-07-10Outdoor street scene in a Tamil Nadu town with trees and low tiled-roof buildings behind a crowd. A figure in a saffron-orange sleeveless robe with long dark hair and a white flower garland stands at a tall white pole, hauling a white flag with a blue band upward. Above them red and yellow ornate parasols are held aloft. Around them devotees in white dhotis and shirts raise folded hands, one man in white holds a mobile phone, a woman in a white sari with a red border folds her hands, and a young boy in a green shirt holds papers. The figure's cues are a long swept-back hairstyle and saffron robe, so this is a person; he is a flag-hoisting participant in the crowd.2006-07-16August 03 20092009-08-03February 06 20072007-02-06August 03 20092009-08-03August 03 20092009-08-03A photograph of a tall wooden pole or pillar decorated for a ritual, wrapped in white cloth with gold and red-green border bands, draped with green mango leaves, white jasmine-type flower garlands and red flower clusters.
