Focus on volunteers preparing langar, people sharing meals, devotional singing, pilgrims arriving and the atmosphere around the Golden Temple. Work quietly and respectfully, balancing wide contextual frames with details of community service.
Respect gurdwara rules, head-covering requirements and instructions from staff. Ask before photographing individuals at close range and never interrupt prayer or service activities.
Expect large crowds and security checks. Keep equipment compact, follow instructions from volunteers and security staff, and respect restricted areas.
