Several people stand with palms pressed together in namaskar, including men in white dhotis and women in saffron and red saris. A golden-clad deity murti or sculpture with garlands and a gold crown stands at the right beside a stone snake figure, and a gold-and-purple cloth hangs from it.

Several people stand on a paved path with hands folded in prayer, a few in white dhotis with gold borders, a woman in a red sari with an orange shawl, a shirtless man in grey trousers, and others in orange and saffron clothing. On the right stands a large golden-clad murti with an orange turban, garlands, a decorated blue-and-gold backdrop and an orange-gold cloth draped beside it, with a small black shivalinga-style stone at its base. The scene suggests darshan or puja at a sacred tree shrine.2017-01-01Outdoor photograph beneath a large banyan tree with many hanging aerial roots. In the foreground a person in an orange saffron robe wears a white and orange floral garland and stands with hands together in front of a black stone deity murti draped in white cloth, set on a red-painted pedestal. Behind them, several people in orange robes and white clothes stand with palms joined, and two men in dark shirts and jeans stand by the tree. A bowl sits near the murti base. a person appearance is uncertain; the standing figure in orange with a garland shows some cues but is not clearly distinguishable.2006-12-25
