Outdoor photo of a woman in a green blouse and green-and-black patterned sari standing at left with hands joined in prayer before a shrine. The shrine has a large round red backdrop behind a printed cutout portrait of a smiling bearded man wearing a pink-orange turban, a multi-strand garland of yellow and orange flowers, and holding a peacock feather; the figure is a printed image, not a physical person. A red cloth covers the shrine base, and a pink cloth covers a table holding a brass tray with a lamp, incense sticks, a small bell and brass vessels. Flower petals lie on the base, a red-and-multicolored umbrella canopy is above, a white floor kolam pattern is on the ground, and green trees surround the courtyard.
