A photograph of a devotee seen from behind, standing before a gilded deity murti adorned with yellow and red flower garlands. The person wears a sleeveless orange top and orange dhoti, with long curly dark hair falling down the back, hands folded in prayer. Behind them is a seated figure in orange robes and a matching orange head wrap, with a mala of beads around its neck, next to a brass bell and a kalasha-type vessel. Golden oil lamps stand on the left, and a wooden tray of sweets sits at the lower right. Apart from the devotee, the visible figures are murtis, so the person count is one.
