A photograph inside a temple hall with dark wooden pillars and stone columns carved with figures. In the left foreground, a person in saffron-orange robes and an orange head wrap, with long dark hair, stands at a brass railing with hands pressed together in prayer, facing a shrine. Across the hall, a bare-chested older man in a white dhoti stands on a marble floor near a sanctum with flower garlands and a small deity murti. A copper vessel sits nearby, and a timestamp reads 7:18 in the corner.2004-05-09May 09 20042004-05-09 +1 copiesInside a gold-toned temple hall, a woman in an orange-red sari stands with palms pressed together in prayer, eyes closed, beside a large ornate golden pillar draped with green leaves and garlands.

Bare-shouldered and wearing red and gold bangles on the wrist, with a folded kneeling mat of yellow and white patterned cloth on the stone floor. Behind the stone ledge are brass lamps and a brass dish with an incense stick. Red and white painted pillars and walls frame the pavilion. The figure is shown from behind, so no face is visible, and the figure is a devotee at the shrine, not a clearly identifiable individual.2012-04-17May 09 20132013-05-09December 25 20052005-12-25April 07 20112011-04-07A photograph of a temple shrine with a granite stone structure.
