Several men in saffron-orange dhotis and shawls handle the lifting, with one bare-chested man in orange guiding the load.

Red and orange flags flank the scene under an overcast sky.

Several other grey stone deity statues with crowns and ornate carved bases stand in a row on a striped red, white and grey platform.

Behind them, rows of many more black stone lingas or pillars stand in the distance. A yellow crane lifts a stone piece, and a yellow loader stands to the left. A few workers in white dhotis and shirts stand nearby, one in white dhoti and shawl beside the crane. White pillars and street lamps line the path among green trees under a pale sky.2011-11-10A photograph inside a temple hall where a grey stone deity murti is being lowered into place on a plinth, suspended from a metal frame with white slings. Several people in orange and saffron clothing and white shirts guide and steady the statue, while a bald man in orange robes with a pink-orange shawl stands at right, watching. A man in a grey shirt and jeans and a woman in an orange top and red garment are among the helpers. Behind the statue hang maroon curtains, and colourful striped and flower-decorated pillars with garlands frame the scene, with other deity images decorated with gold ornaments and garlands at the edges.2007-11-15
