In the foreground, a man in saffron robes and an orange turban stands facing the camera, with a white-clad man walking past on the left. Behind them a crowd of men in white dhotis and women in saffron, orange and green saris stands beside several colourful ceremonial umbrellas with tassels. A decorated white figure and a trident-topped pole appear at the right edge, and a pile of sand is visible on the right. The man in saffron wears a rudraksha mala and no visible crown or swept hair, so identity cannot be determined from appearance.2006-12-20November 24 20062006-11-24January 04 20122012-01-04Outdoor relief distribution scene on a dirt road lined with palm trees after a cyclone. Men in white dhotis and checked lungis and short-sleeved shirts stand in a loose line and crowd near a chain-link fence. Behind them, parked trucks and a small white van are loaded with supplies, and a striped canopy shelters a stall where a few people in white shirts and orange-bordered sarongs work. A large orange banner hangs along the left edge. Several people, including a child in a red shirt, look on from the roadside.2012-01-06December 31 20162016-12-31Outdoor photograph of a large crowd walking along a dusty, sandy ground beside a long event pavilion with blue tarpaulin walls, bamboo poles and a red and white canopy roof. Many people in white dhotis and shirts walk in the foreground, with several women in colourful saris, including orange, green and yellow tones. Some men carry drums, and a few tall bamboo poles stand upright along the route. Vehicles and a small blue-and-white tent appear at the right edge, and a few buildings are visible in the hazy background. The scene suggests a procession or gathering moving toward the venue, but no a person candidate is clearly visible.2015-01-13Outdoor procession on a dusty dirt road in front of low buildings with tiled and thatched roofs. Several men in white dhotis and white shirts, some with orange shawls, walk in a line, and a man in white holds a drum slung at his side while another beats a drum. Women in white saris with gold borders and one in a red-and-white sari stand along both sides of the road. Two colourful umbrellas with fringed tops are carried on poles above the group. Many devotees stand in a loose crowd on the left and right, with a few people in the background near a parked vehicle.2006-12-30Outdoor relief camp under a large awning of red patterned cloth with purple, pink and green striped borders, supported by a pole. Two shaven-headed men in saffron-orange robes stand at the centre, one pointing, the other holding a long pole. A young man in white kurta and light trousers stands at left beside a table with a steel pot, folded white and red cloths, and plastic chairs. Other people in white clothing and orange robes move in the background among tents and a whitewashed building under palm trees. The two saffron-robed men show no clear a person cues such as long swept-back hair, crown, rudraksha malas or ceremonial gold, so they are described by role only.2012-01-03
