Night photograph of a temple scene at Tiruvannamalai. A striated temple gopuram tower rises on the right, its facade lit with small white lights, and a striped red, yellow and white awning hangs over a railed walkway. A line of string lights with red bulbs crosses the dark sky. Several people in white dhotis and orange or saffron cloths walk along the railing, with a few devotees in the foreground, and a figure in an orange robe is at the centre. Lamps glow along the temple edges. The image is blurred and grainy.
