A bearded man with long dreadlocked hair wrapped in a rust-red turban and reddish-brown cloth, with gold armband and bangles, reaches to adjust a tall flower-garlanded altar at a golden deity murti. The garlands are yellow, orange, red and white, with a gold-decorated frame and an ornate gold and red headdress. A second attendant in orange cloth with rudraksha and a long braid stands at left. Brass kalasha pots and offering vessels sit in the foreground. Appearance suggests a person performing the puja, though this is uncertain. Gold-embroidered red and orange silks drape the deity.2016-12-14December 02 20172017-12-02A photograph of a temple shrine decorated with dense garlands of marigolds and roses in yellow, orange, red and white, forming a floral arch. At center, a golden-hued deity murti seated on a throne, with a smaller golden figure beside it. Three people stand in the foreground: a figure with long dreadlocked hair and bare upper body wearing orange cloth at the waist, a figure with long hair and an orange-brown wrap, and a figure in a saffron-orange cloth with a brown turban-like wrap, all facing the shrine as if performing worship. A brass oil lamp with smoke rises at right near a standing statue wearing a maroon garment and rudraksha mala, with a folded-hand gesture. Bright floral garlands also wrap the statue and lion-shaped brass ornaments sit in front.2016-12-23December 02 20172017-12-02December 14 20162016-12-14
