A photograph of an ornate gilded processional shrine decorated with strings of green, red and warm white fairy lights. At its centre stand two gold-plated deity murtis with jewelled crowns and elaborate silver-and-gold ornaments, seated side by side on a gold vahana-style base, with a smaller seated figure and a large gilded arch framing them. A second ornate gilded palanquin-like structure stands partly visible to the right, and a red-painted pillar behind the shrine bears a faint white inscription. No physical people are visible in the scene.
