A photograph of a man in an orange-brown robe seated on a pink stone platform beside a large copper-coloured temple pillar base, which is draped with garlands of red, white, yellow and purple flowers and decorated with silver bells. He wears a long coral-red garland with gold-tipped links and smiles broadly while resting one hand on the pillar. Two bald men in saffron-orange robes with rudraksha beads sit with palms pressed together behind him in the background. Yellow petals are scattered on the platform and palm trees stand against an evening sky. The setting suggests a dwajarohanam flag-hoisting ceremony at a temple.2013-03-11A photograph of a smiling man with long, swept-back dark hair and a white vertical tilak with a red dot on his forehead, seated on a raised pink stone platform beside an ornate pink stone pillar base decorated with flower garlands.
