A tiered silver aarti lamp with multiple rows of lit oil lamps is held aloft in the foreground by a priest whose head and hand are visible at lower left, wearing a dark garment. Behind the lamp, a blurred temple interior shows a framed picture, a gold-toned deity murti or throne area, and string lights of orange bokeh.
