A photograph taken from behind of a figure in a saffron-red robe walking along a metal railing toward a shrine. The silhouetted person is backlit, with a shaved head and bare arm visible. Inside the temple-like hall, a deity murti stands in an ornate grey stone shrine framed by a gold arch and draped with rose-pink cloth, decorated with green and orange garlands and a green sari-like garment. A red carpet runs to the shrine. To the left, a gold carved throne-like seat stands beside two figures in white: one in a white dhoti and shawl with ceremonial gold necklace, and another in white clothing. Red-and-white striped pillars and a shaded tent frame the scene.

To the left, a man in white ceremonial clothes stands near the railing. Red and white striped drapes, a brass lamp and a kalasha-like offering are placed before the murti, with a red curtain and iron railings framing the scene.2013-01-17A photograph taken from behind of a person in orange saffron robes draped over one shoulder, dark hair in a low bun, standing on a covered walkway beside a metal railing. Ahead, a stone shrine with red and gold decorations houses a deity murti adorned with garlands, with red curtains and a golden stand in front. The space has a corrugated roof, red-and-white striped barriers and colourful painted pillars. The orange-clad figure's identity cannot be established from appearance alone, so no a person candidate is asserted.2010-10-27November 12 20102010-11-12November 12 20102010-11-12September 12 20112011-09-12 +2 copiesA photograph taken from behind of a single person in a dark orange-red sannyasi robe walking down a red-carpeted aisle toward a large deity murti. The murti is adorned with a thick garland of red and yellow flowers and wears a blue and pink garment, with a gold-framed backdrop and a pink curtain behind it. Flanking stone carvings and small smaller shrine images are visible on the pillars, and orange-red drapes hang on both sides of the aisle. The figure is seen only from the back, so no face is visible; no identity is established from appearance.2011-02-02January 17 20132013-01-17April 17 20132013-04-17 +2 copiesA photograph of a temple interior with a red carpet runway between metal railings.
