A photograph of a long line of devotees standing behind metal stanchions and chains in an arched temple hall with ornate golden columns. A red-and-gold striped runner leads toward a golden throne with red cushions, where a figure in white robes stands near it. Many devotees hold hands in anjali mudra. In the foreground a man in a dark shirt wears a rudraksha mala and a gold pendant; an older man in white dhoti with a white-marked forehead presses palms together. Women in saris, some with flower garlands and jewelry, face the throne. Scattered petals lie on the floor.

A photograph inside a temple hall with white arched walls and a red-and-gold ornate throne with a red cushion and a golden seat backdrop, empty of any seated figure. A long red-and-gold striped carpet runs down the center aisle between silver rope barriers. Devotees line both sides: a bare-chested man in a white dhoti with a red-and-white garland and folded arms stands at left, men in white shirts and dhotis press hands together, a woman in a red salwar and a woman in white sari hold papers, and a woman in a light green sari stands at right with a red bindi. Overhead are fans and a green-and-orange draped canopy.

A photograph of devotees lining both sides of a long hall with a red and gold striped runner down the centre. Along the left, women in white and pastel saris and a woman in a pink sari with grey hair stand with hands pressed together in namaste. On the right, men in white shirts and dhotis and a man in a blue striped shirt stand facing the runner. Metal stanchions with chains divide the aisle. At the far end a figure in saffron-orange robes stands near the front, and a person holds up a camera or phone. A red and gold textile hangs on the right wall. The scene looks like a darshan line.

A photograph of two long lines of devotees standing face to face down a polished hall, with a central aisle between them. On the left, women in white and orange saris and a woman in a dark blue and red sari stand with folded hands near a boy in a yellow top. On the right, men in white shirts and dhotis, some with glasses, stand in line with hands clasped, while a man in a light blue shirt holds his palms together. Hanging colourful tassels and a framed picture are visible on the back wall. No a person candidate is clearly visible in this image.

A photograph of devotees standing in a long covered hall with a corrugated roof, decorated with hanging yellow paper or leaf garlands and painted cylindrical pillars in red, yellow and blue. A long red carpet runs down the center toward a distant altar area with flowers. Along metal railings on both sides, a crowd with hands in anjali mudra stands in line, including women in blue, green and patterned saris and men in white kurtas and light shirts. Several people wear white, one man in a white kurta and one in a light blue shirt with a shoulder bag and lanyard. The scene appears to be a queue or procession route for darshan.

A photograph of devotees standing in two long queues along a carpeted central aisle in a bright, high-ceilinged hall, with silver stanchions and rope barriers guiding the line. Devotees on the left wear orange and cream saris and a woman in an orange sari stands with folded hands; men on the right wear cream shirts, black striped shirts and an orange-striped shirt, many with palms pressed together in namaskar. Framed portraits hang on the walls, and red-and-white striped mats lie on the floor with bags beside them. No a person candidate is visible.
