A priest or attendant in orange stands at right beside a shrine decorated with garlands in red, white and green and a metal ornamental base. Strings of orange and saffron flags hang from the branches. Several people stand near the right edge beside the shrine.2006-10-21A large old banyan tree with dense aerial roots and sprawling branches dominates the outdoor scene, its roots exposed around a dug-out earthen pit. In the foreground at lower left, a woman with long dark hair and a red-and-brown patterned skirt holds a lit oil lamp or flame near a small wooden stand bearing offerings. A man in white clothes kneels on the roots near the centre, holding a camera. A metal railing and a low stone platform sit behind.
