A photograph of one man standing with eyes closed in prayer before a richly decorated deity murti. He wears a maroon turban with a gold ornament and green beads, white vibhuti marks on his forehead, heavy gold necklaces and a rudraksha-style gold pendant, and a dark red silk garment. He holds a long garland of white jasmine and pink lotus flowers, and an orange thread is wound around his fingers. Beside him stands a green-and-gold sari-clad goddess murti with a jewelled crown, garlanded in red and yellow flowers, set in front of a gold throne-like backdrop.

A photograph of a man with eyes lowered and hands folded at his chest, wearing a rust-red turban decorated with gold ornaments and a teal bead band.

Foliage blurs in the background.2018-01-09 +1 copiesA man seated with eyes closed and a faint smile, wearing a deep maroon turban decorated with green beads and gold ornaments, a maroon garment, and heavy gold necklaces with rudraksha beads and a gold pendant. He holds an orange thread between his hands, with gold rings on his fingers. He is draped in white jasmine garlands and pink lotus garlands, with a richly ornate gold and red backdrop behind him. A partially visible figure in white and colourful garlands sits at the left edge. Appearance suggests a candidate for a person, with the cues of a maroon turban, gold ceremonial jewellery and rudraksha beads, but the identity is uncertain.2018-04-27January 09 20182018-01-09 +1 copiesA photograph of a temple shrine decorated with dense garlands of yellow, orange, red and white flowers forming an arch. Golden metal deity murtis stand behind a central figure: one with a crown and ornate jewellery, another with a fanned headdress, and a figure on the left in a maroon dress with pearl-like embellishments. In front, a bearded man in a maroon-brown robe and matching turban smiles and raises one hand in greeting, wearing a gold necklace, a rudraksha mala with a pendant and a floral garland with pink and white blooms. Flower garlands drape the shrine base and brass lamps sit at the front. The scene looks like a Hindu temple festival or darshan.2016-12-14December 13 20162016-12-13A seated man in rust-red and gold ceremonial dress, wearing a rust-red turban with a gold and blue peacock-feather ornament and a jewelled hair piece, sits surrounded by a long garland of white and pink lotus flowers. He wears a gold necklace, rudraksha beads, a gold armlet on his upper arm and a gold bangle. He looks down while his hand holds a cup of offerings. Standing figures in orange robes flank him on both sides, and red roses are heaped in front of him. The scene resembles a festival puja.
