Night-time photo of a crowd gathered around a black car at a lit temple-style venue with red and white architecture. Pink rose petals are being showered over a central man with long dark hair and a gold necklace, wearing an orange-red robe. Around him, saffron-robed men with rudraksha malas press close, and a man in a white shirt raises a hand at the right edge. Several women in the crowd smile with hands pressed together in greeting. Red-and-white tent structures and hoarding-style banners with printed portraits line the left side.

Night photograph at an outdoor event beside a pink and yellow illuminated arched structure with a red flag. A figure in a dark black vehicle's window frame is reached toward by a crowd. A man in a saffron-orange turban and orange-brown robe with long hair leans from the crowd extending his arm, while a white-clad man wearing rudraksha-style beaded necklaces, and a bald man in orange in the foreground reach out with raised hands. Several devotees in white and orange clothing press close, some holding up hands in greeting, with a small child at centre. A torch-like brass ceremonial lamp stands near the vehicle.

Night outdoor arrival scene lit by strings of multicoloured fairy lights overhead. A man with long swept-back dark hair, white forehead markings, a dark red-brown robe, a thick multi-strand garland of pink and white flowers, and layered gold necklaces stands beside an open dark SUV, smiling. Behind him a bald man in a rust-brown robe with gold beads holds a red packet. On the right, two women in orange saris with white forehead markings join palms, and a man in white holds a tall yellow-and-orange ceremonial banner on a pole. Robed devotees in orange and pale pink walk along the lit path, and a camera with flash sits in the foreground beside a bouquet of orange and pink flowers.
