A photograph inside a temple shrine. A woman in a red saree with a long braid stands at the left, holding a lit oil lamp over a large black Shiva lingam on a round black base. The lingam is draped with yellow cloth and a red flower. Behind it is a gold-framed arch and a red cloth backdrop. On the right wall hangs a framed printed portrait of a smiling figure with long dark hair, wearing a red garment and a red and white beaded necklace; this is a printed picture, not a person present. A trident stands on the left, and a dark deity murti with a garland and yellow cloth stands at the far left beside a red garland. The floor is concrete.
