He is bare-chested with a saffron-orange cloth over one shoulder and wears gold earrings. Beside him sits a silver pot and a silver bowl, and a golden statue fills the lower right. A white room air cooler and colourful flower decorations appear in the background.2013-05-27March 14 20142014-03-14A seated man in an orange silk garment, bare-shouldered with a gold-toned sacred thread and a bracelet on his wrist, pours a white liquid from a shell-like vessel over a Sri Meru yantra made of pale tiers on a brass tray. The yantra sits on a peetha-like base amid marigold and jasmine garlands and pink petals, with a smoking fire pit and brass vessels beside it. Behind, a shrine holds a deity murti in red and white adornments flanked by brass lamps and flowers. A person's hand holding a brass vessel is partly visible at lower left, and a tiger-striped seat cover sits at the left edge. The description of this photo's appearance-based label: the man's shaved head, orange garment, sacred thread and bracelet are consistent with a person performing the abhishekam, with an unsure identity tag.March 14 20142014-03-14A seated woman in a rust-red saffron wrap and a long garland of dark rudraksha beads performs aarti before a shrine. She holds a lit oil lamp in one hand and a small bell in the other, her long dark hair falling forward. Behind her, pink flower garlands drape a silver-and-gold shrine housing a gilded deity murti, with silver lamp stands, a silver bowl of pink petals and a kalasha-like vessel on the altar. A small brass figure and a silver tray with flower petals sit at the lower left. The scene is lit by warm lamplight, with string lights at the edges.2012-06-01
