Outdoor photo of a black stone Ganesha murti being bathed with yellow liquid poured from a brass vessel held by a child's hands in the upper right. The four-armed deity sits on a pedestal with its trunk curled down, a tilak on its forehead, and a gold-coloured ornament on the trunk. Dry grass, trees and blue sky form the background, and a red and green garment is visible at the right edge. No a person candidate is visible in this frame, so the figure is the murti and the pouring child is the only physical person.
