A large yellow-faced Durga murti stands with multiple raised arms holding weapons, including a long golden trident-like staff, dressed in a red sari with gold embroidery and garlands of yellow marigolds. A priest in a red garment, with a white tilak and a pink flower garland, stands at the lower left touching the figure's base, with a smaller blue-faced deity figure at the lower right. Behind them are rows of decorative painted faces, golden ornamentation and draped white and pink fabric under a canvas tent ceiling.

To the left, a man with long dark hair and a dark beard, wearing a maroon-red wrap and a pink-and-white flower garland, stands with palms pressed together in prayer, eyes closed. The shawl and garland mark him as a devotee; the photo does not establish his identity. Ornate yellow and green decorations frame the scene under a white tent ceiling.2017-09-28 +1 copiesSeptember 28 20172017-09-28 +1 copiesA large, brightly painted deity murti of a goddess with a yellow face, multiple arms, black hair and an ornate gold and sequined red-and-yellow garment dominates the right side, holding a long golden staff and a raised hand. On the left, a man with long dark hair, a white forehead mark, a red garment, a pink flower garland and gold armbands bends forward smiling, offering a small pink object toward the murti's base. Yellow marigold garlands drape the statue, and a white fabric canopy and stage lights overhead suggest a temple or festival pandal. The man's appearance shows some cues but is not distinctive enough to confirm identity.2017-09-28September 28 20172017-09-28 +3 copiesSeptember 27 20172017-09-27 +1 copiesSeptember 28 20172017-09-28 +1 copiesSeptember 28 20172017-09-28 +1 copiesSeptember 28 20172017-09-28 +1 copiesSeptember 28 20172017-09-28 +1 copies
