Centre-right stands a silver deity murti of Nataraja-style dancing Shiva within a flame arch, decorated with a gold necklace and a blue-and-gold cloth. Beside it sits a small brass-coloured figurine of a seated man in orange turban and orange clothing holding a trident, with a rudraksha-style mala, a printed image of a seated figure, and a leopard-print cloth. Around them are brass bowls, a brass kalasha-style pot, a lit oil lamp, incense sticks, pink and red flowers, green betel leaves, and white rice-like offerings. No physical people are visible apart from partial orange-clad arms at the edge.2017-07-20July 02 20132013-07-02March 01 20142014-03-01A photograph of a puja setup on an orange cloth over a grey wooden tray.
