January 31 20142014-01-31A photograph inside a temple shrine showing a deity murti of a goddess with a golden face and crown, draped in a red and gold embroidered cloth and dense yellow and red marigold and rose garlands. A man in a saffron-orange dhoti with a yellow and gold border and multiple yellow and white flower garlands sits at left, smiling and holding yellow marigold petals in his hands toward the murti in an offering gesture. Long swept-back hair and a white forehead mark are visible; he wears gold bangles and red thread on his wrist. At right, a man with folded palms in a white and beige kurta and a red thread bracelet bows in devotion. Silver pillars frame the shrine behind them, and fresh flowers lie on a tray in the foreground. The scene suggests puja and darshan.2014-02-01A photo of a seated ritual in a temple sanctum with silver-clad pillars.
