A photograph of a deity murti or pot dressed in white cloth, heavily adorned with layered gold-toned necklaces set with white stones and red accents. A blue flower sits on top, and the base is surrounded by yellow orchids, a pink rose, blue flowers and a white lily-like bloom on a dark wooden stand against a gold curtain. No people are visible, so this is a decorated deity alankaram presentation rather than an event scene.
