A man stands in profile beside a carved grey stone shrine in an orange-walled hall with red and white vertical stripes. He wears a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl edged in maroon, a rudraksha mala around his neck, and his hair is tied up in a knot. His hands are folded in front of him as he gazes toward the carved shrine, where a brass oil lamp sits on the ledge. A deep red curtain hangs behind him. The photo is a single figure in a temple setting, and the figure's appearance is uncertain, so the subject is described by role as a devotee in orange clothing at a shrine.
