A photograph of an outdoor shrine under a stone canopy with red curtains. Two large metal deity murtis stand behind a central white-draped seat: one in orange and red with a crown and rudraksha necklaces, the other in green and blue with a black crown. Both are adorned with marigold garlands. In front, a small orange-robed figurine sits on the white-draped seat, garlanded with a rudraksha mala. Brass oil lamps, a kalasha-like vessel, and offering plates surround the platform, with green trees behind.

Two colourful deity figures sit on a raised seat, one with a crown and trident, the other with a dark topknot, both draped in garlands of orange and red marigold flowers and beaded necklaces. In front stands a smaller saint figure in green and white robes with a garland and mala beads, and a figure in green sits at the base. Flanking the shrine are a standing statue in green robes and brass oil lamps on a stone-pillared platform, with flower offerings and a small brass vessel at the lower left.

A temple shrine with a golden arched frame and red velvet backdrop holds a large golden-brown statue pair: a deity murti seated with a trident, adorned with flower garlands in red, yellow and purple, and a consort figure in an orange sari. Before them stands a central statue with a golden crown and orange-and-white cloth, wearing a pink garment and white garland. Brass lamps flank the shrine and a small blue deity figure sits to the right, with offerings and oil lamps on wooden stands in front. No living people are visible.

A shrine arrangement of carved statues under a gilded arch with a lavender cloth backdrop. The central deity murti, seated with multiple arms, wears an orange turban, rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and a red-and-gold dhoti, holding a trident-like staff, with a consort figure beside it in a black headdress. Two standing attendant statues flank the shrine, each draped in marigold and white garlands, one with a crescent-topped red cap. Yellow and red marigold garlands hang across the central figure and a gold-bordered red cloth covers the base, with brass oil lamps in front. The setting appears to be a temple-style display.
