Photograph of ceremonial kalasha pots decorated for worship on an orange draped surface outdoors. Coconuts with mango leaves and sacred threads sit atop brass-rimmed pots dressed in cream, white, and red silk, studded with rhinestone bands and jewelled pendants. Garlands of white flowers and deep red petals hang around them, with rudraksha malas draped over the central pot. Scattered white and red flowers lie at the base, and a hazy hillside and distant building appear in the background. No people are visible.2014-03-18May 10 20172017-05-10November 18 20132013-11-18August 22 20132013-08-22April 30 20152015-04-30March 18 20142014-03-18April 14 20132013-04-14Two metal deity murti stand side by side in a shrine heavily decorated with garlands of red roses, pink roses, white jasmine-like flowers, yellow blooms, green foliage and purple flowers arranged in arches.
