Dim photograph of a temple shrine seen from behind a line of silhouetted devotees standing along metal railings on a red carpet. At the far end a golden-framed deity murti pair is decorated with yellow and red garments, garlands and ornaments, flanked by brass lamps and a small kalasha-like offering on a stone plinth. Orange curtains hang at the sides beneath a corrugated roof with ceiling fans, and a robed figure stands at right beside a table. Greenery and a red-and-white railing frame the open-sided shrine.
