A photograph of a ritual preparation in a temple hall. Three people sit on a striped mat over a red carpet: a woman in a rust-red sari with a long plait and beaded necklace kneels at left, pressing golden-yellow paste from her hands; a woman in a white and gold-bordered sari with a hairnet, gold pendant and rudraksha-style mala sits centre; a bare-chested man with white sacred markings on his chest and arms, wearing a white dhoti with gold border, holds yellow paste in cupped hands at right. A large silver bowl of the yellow mixture sits in front, with a brass plate beside. Orange-robed figures and a monitor showing a screen appear in the background, along with a tripod and a tall metal vessel.

A bare-chested man on the right in white dhoti holds out cupped hands to receive the paste.
