A photograph of a Hindu ritual inside a temple hall decorated with marigold and orange garlands. At the centre, a man with a tall dark turban-like hairstyle, a red tilak, a flower and rudraksha-style garland, and a saffron-and-white ceremonial cloth holds a ritual staff with both hands before a small silver altar stand with brass pots and offerings. Smoke rises at the right near a tall decorated pillar. Around him stand attendants: a young man in saffron with bead necklaces holding a metal bowl, a woman in a purple sari, a bald man in white with a rudraksha mala holding a silver staff, and other devotees in saffron and white. A large ornate golden arch with a decorated canopy frames the back.
