A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gilded throne with red cushions and a garland of red and yellow flowers along its top. The seated person wears a red turban, a saffron-red shawl over the shoulder, a white dhoti and a beaded necklace, and sits with hands resting on the throne. To the right stands a large decorated deity murti with a golden crown, red-and-gold garments and a painted face. Lit oil lamps and flower petals sit in front. The backdrop is a printed banner of a sunset over a beach with palm trees, reading Dasara 2011 and Navaratri Brahmotsava. The image is a photo of a Navaratri celebration.
