Outdoor photo of a small group of devotees in a dry courtyard beside a tree and a red boundary wall, with palms and a green gate behind. A long-haired man in a rust-orange robe with a long dark braid stands front centre, hands at his sides, facing the group. Behind him a row of men in orange and saffron dhotis and shawls, some bare-chested with rudraksha malas, hold brass plates and vessels, while a man in white garments stands at the right. Two women stand at left, one in orange and one in a purple sari with gold border. Marigold and pink petals lie on the ground beside brass plates. The scene suggests a puja or ritual offering in an ashram garden.2016-10-31Outdoor photo beneath a large banyan tree with aerial roots, red earth and a low stone-edged enclosure. In the foreground an elderly bearded man in orange robes and a shawl holds a staff-like walking stick with a serpent-shaped top. Beside him a bald man in saffron robes with a rudraksha mala walks, and a man with a topknot and gold-bordered orange cloth gestures with his hands. Behind them several devotees in orange and rust-coloured robes and rudraksha malas follow, and a man on the right stands barefoot on a flat rock with vibhuti marks. No identifiable a person cues are clearly visible; the figures are presented as priests and devotees.2013-11-05February 01 20182018-02-01Outdoor ritual photo at a dusty, excavated site with a bare-trunked tree in the foreground wrapped with red thread, and a red brick wall and green trees behind. A bare-chested man with long dark hair, seen from behind, stands at the tree. Four men stand in a line facing the tree: the man second from left wears a red-and-saffron dhoti with a rudraksha mala and holds a metal plate; the man third from left wears an orange dhoti and shawl with rudraksha mala, white horizontal markings on his forehead and holds a silver plate with banana leaves; the man fourth from left wears orange cloth with white striped body markings and long braided hair, holding a leaf-covered plate; a young boy at right wears orange cloth and a rudraksha mala. This appears to be a ritual offering at the tree; no deity murti or fire is visible.2016-10-31April 24 20192019-04-24Outdoor photo of three men walking barefoot along a wet paved path beside a red-and-white painted kerb, past green shrubs and trees. The central man, in front, wears a saffron-orange robe draped over his shoulder, a long dark rudraksha mala around his neck, and has long dark hair swept back. Two men walk behind him in plain white dhoti and shawl, one with a shaved head. A red iron gate and a metal railing stand at left, with a brick wall behind. Probable Swamiji (long swept-back hair, saffron robe, rudraksha mala) walking at the centre of a small procession.2010-11-18 +1 copiesFebruary 01 20182018-02-01July 02 20102010-07-02 +1 copiesFebruary 01 20182018-02-01Outdoor photograph of a man in a flowing saffron-orange garment walking across a paved courtyard beside a white boundary wall, with a tree and bare branches visible. He has long dark hair falling past his shoulders and a red forehead mark. Beside him, a second man in white ritual clothes and white dhoti walks with a saffron-orange shawl draped over his shoulders and holds a small paper or notebook. A shelter frame with corrugated roof and a tree canopy overhead. The first man has long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and a red forehead mark, cues consistent with a person, but the appearance is uncertain given the distance and framing.2010-02-04February 01 20182018-02-01Outdoor photo beside a large banyan tree with hanging aerial roots and a paved brick path. Four people stand together: on the left a bare-chested man in rust-orange drapes with long dreadlocked hair and a short beard; behind him a woman in a rust-orange top and shawl wearing a gold necklace and bindi; to the right a man in an orange dhoti-style wrap with a rudraksha mala and a pendant, and a bearded man in a purple shirt with a pendant. A white-clad figure is partly visible at the right edge. A yellow-and-red ceremonial structure stands in the background. The page indicates a construction-site visit at a temple layout, but no a person appearance can be confirmed from the image, so the candidate is marked unsure.2018-02-01
