A home shrine photographed head-on on a glass table cluttered with offerings. At left a large framed print of Shiva seated in meditation, with pale skin, a crescent moon in his matted hair, and a trident behind him, draped in a red and gold flower garland. In the centre a framed print of a goddess in red and gold with a crown and a blue backdrop, also garlanded in red and white flowers. At right a framed photograph of a young man in an orange robe with a beaded necklace, one hand raised, standing before a tree trunk; this is a printed portrait, not a person present. Small gold deity figures, a brass oil lamp, a lotus-shaped candle holder, white jasmine flowers, blue flowers and a small bowl of offerings sit on the table. No people are physically present.
