Outdoors under spreading trees, a smiling man with long dark hair sits on a red rock-like pedestal in front of a large golden deity murti. He wears an orange saffron robe, a rudraksha mala, a layered ceremonial gold and white beaded necklace, gold armlets, and a red tilak on his forehead, and makes an OK-style hand gesture. Behind him, the deity figure is adorned with a multicolored flower garland arrangement and an orange cloth draped over its head. The page suggests the setting is Maha Shivaratri, but the visible scene shows only the figure, the murti and the garlands.2013-03-10March 10 20132013-03-10Outdoor photo beneath a canopy of large spreading trees.
