A photograph of a small roadside Ganesha shrine under a corrugated metal roof on a dirt street. A framed colour image of Ganesha, orange-bodied with a trunk and a red-and-gold background, hangs on a blue-and-red sign above a white stone shrine niche holding a small image and lamp. A printed Tamil banner on the roof reads as a Ganesha temple name, with a picture of Ganesha at left. A person in a light pink garment bends low at the left edge near a stack of red bricks, and a bicycle stands at the right beside a gated concrete house. Palm trees and dense foliage fill the background.2007-03-03July 08 20122012-07-08Photo 11709667August 05 20092009-08-05Outdoor photograph of a dusty red-earth courtyard at a temple complex with a wooded hill behind.
