Photograph taken through a vehicle window of a Tibetan Buddhist monastery monument at Sarnath. Two golden deer statues recline on either side of a golden Dharma wheel on a tiered white and maroon plinth, with colourful Tibetan prayer flags strung on a gold pole above. A plaque in the centre bears the monastery name. Leafy green trees and a pale sky fill the background, and a faint date stamp reads 8.1.2006.
