Photograph of a temple shrine under a metal-framed roof with a red carpet running toward a raised stone shrine. The shrine holds painted statues of a seated deity pair: the male figure wears orange and holds a trident, the female figure wears a magenta and purple sari, both with garlands, behind a blue curtain and gold arch. A green-clad devotee bends forward in prostration at the rail, and a figure in orange robes stands at the right edge. A standing statue in green and orange sits to the side. Steel railings line the walkway, and a partially visible bell or lamp hangs near the ceiling.
