A photo inside a gold-decorated temple hall. In the foreground, a woman in a white sari with a red-and-gold border and a rudraksha mala stands holding a brass aarti lamp with a lit flame. Behind her, a large ornamental garland-covered frame holds a deity murti decorated with yellow, red and purple flowers. To the right, a seated figure in a gold-and-red robe and garland sits on a red throne cushion beneath a gold arched backdrop; the figure is a statue or effigy rather than a physical person. Other gold-toned deity figures stand in the background, and a blue velvet-draped altar holds small offerings, a brass bowl and fruit. A yellow sign with partial lettering sits at the right edge.
