A photograph of a temple shrine during a puja. Two metal deity figures in purple silk with gold borders and red-orange garlands stand on a low platform, flanked by brass lamps topped with pink flowers. A small seated figure in purple and white sits between them, surrounded by red hibiscus blossoms. In front, a brass pot, copper bowls of red powder, a plate of pink and white flowers, a small oil lamp, a conch shell and kumkum are arranged on a wooden tray. Behind is a seated white-clad deity statue with gold ornaments and garlands, and a green-clad figure at the right edge. Several fruits sit at the bottom edge. No living people are visible.
