In the centre, a man with a white forehead band and long dark hair, wearing an orange robe and a long red-and-white flower garland, stands with palms pressed together in namaskar. Around him, shaved-headed men in orange dhotis and orange shawls with rudraksha malas stand in prayer, some with hands folded. A girl in orange clothing with a rudraksha mala stands at the right. Behind them, a decorated ratha or palanquin with orange drapes and a deity murti is visible, along with a saffron flag and a stone statue among trees.2013-03-11Outdoor photograph of a group of saffron-clad men walking under a clear blue sky. In the centre, a bearded man in an orange-red robe wears multiple long rudraksha malas, a gold necklace, and a bold red tilak with white ash markings. Around him, young men wear orange and saffron cloths, dreadlocked hair wrapped in dark turbans or headbands, white vibhuti stripes on their foreheads and arms, and rudraksha malas. On the right, a tall golden ceremonial staff with a red gemstone and a decorative finial is carried above the crowd. Several figures are partly visible in the background.2018-03-17A photograph of a central man with closed eyes, hands pressed together in anjali, standing at a ceremony. He wears a rust-red dhoti and shawl, a gold ceremonial pendant on a rudraksha mala, a long garland of white flowers and red roses with green leaves, and a sandalwood tilak on his forehead. Around him stand devotees in orange and saffron robes, also with palms joined, several wearing rudraksha malas and tilak marks. A younger woman in rust-red robes stands at left. Brass oil lamps and flower offerings sit on the floor at lower left. The setting appears outdoors beneath trees. The central man is an appearance-based candidate with garland, rudraksha mala and gold pendant, but his face and frame are not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so the label is probable with uncertainty.2016-08-12March 10 20132013-03-10March 11 20132013-03-11March 11 20182018-03-11
