Outdoor street photo in a hillside market lane with stalls selling colourful cloth and goods, a blue tarpaulin and a T-Series sign. Three men walk toward the camera. In the centre, a man in a bright orange turban, orange sari-style wrap and a large gold-coloured beaded necklace walks with a blue-edged saffron cloth draped over him; his face is not described. To the left, a man in a green and grey jacket and white dhoti walks with hands clasped. To the right, a man in a beige jacket, white kurta and white trousers wears an orange shawl and walks on the stone pavement. Several other people stand in the background among the stalls. Appearance-based label: the centre figure's saffron clothing, turban and ornate necklace are cues, but identity is uncertain, so this is unsure.

A photograph of a crowded street in Varanasi with hazy morning light, shops, hanging signs and a fruit stall of tomatoes at right. Beside him, a man in a black top with an orange shawl walks at right, and a bearded man in white kurta holds a small container. A woman in a grey sweatshirt with a rudraksha-style mala and a bag walks at left, and a shawled elderly woman stands at far right. Several other people walk in the background.

A photograph of a central figure in an orange saffron turban with a round gold ornament at the forehead, wearing orange draped robes and a long rudraksha mala. He stands on a street in front of a building with ornate gold-and-red trim. Beside him, a man in a blue jacket and red sweater holds a leopard-print cloth, and a younger man in a grey jacket wears an orange scarf. A man in a white cap and a parked dark vehicle are behind them. The central figure has long hair and appears to be a person by appearance cues: a saffron turban with gold ornament, orange robes and rudraksha mala.

A street procession of devotees in saffron orange robes walks beneath a red, white and green fringed parasol. At the centre, a man with long dark hair, a red bindi and a large gold pendant on a beaded necklace wears orange-saffron robes with a pink-red shawl and holds a trident-tipped staff. Beside him, a young man in orange carries a golden kalasha-shaped vessel. Other devotees wear orange shawls and rudraksha malas, and a man in black with sunglasses walks among them. Stone houses, a parked white bus and market stalls line the street behind the crowd.
