A bald, bare-chested priest in white dhoti with a gold border stands with his back to the camera, holding a lit oil lamp toward a central altar. Behind the altar are decorated deity murti with garlands and multiple ornate figures. A black stone Nandi-like bull figure in the foreground wears a green and orange cloth and a pearl necklace, with small oil lamps burning on the floor. Brass lamp stands flank the scene. The setting suggests a Tamil New Year puja.2020-04-14KAILASA SAN JOSE, USA on 7/4/20202020-07-04Photo 99214412022-09-30 +3 copiesPhotograph inside a golden-walled Hindu temple shrine.
