January 07 20122012-01-07Outdoor photo at a temple entrance with a yellow-and-red-roofed building behind a metal railing. A woman with long curly dark hair wears an orange sari with a gold border and gold bangles, and has her back to the camera. Beside her, a bald man in an orange dhoti and shawl with white markings on his forearm walks toward the carved temple gateway. Men in white shirts and light trousers stand around, and a man in white dhoti and shirt walks at left. A bald man in orange in the right foreground holds white flower garlands. A microphone is held at lower left by a hand. The scene shows a visiting group approaching the temple.2012-01-07January 07 20122012-01-07Outdoor photograph of a street scene in front of a temple gate with a painted guardian statue above. A long-haired man in an orange saffron garment and a yellow-and-red flower garland stands at right, smiling and holding a bangled hand toward a bearded, dreadlocked sadhu at left. The sadhu, bare-chested with white ash markings and a dark wrap, holds up a basket of bananas. Around them stand men in white shirts and dhotis, a uniformed police officer in khaki, and onlookers in casual clothes. The orange-clad man has distinctive long hair, saffron robe and garland cues, so this is a person candidate in a welcoming exchange with the sadhu.2012-01-07November 25 20062006-11-25Photograph of a temple courtyard with a painted gopuram-style tower and blue stone elephant statues flanking the steps.
