A standing man with long dark hair wears an orange saffron robe and white flower garland, holding a brass lamp aloft toward two deity murtis seated on a decorated platform. The murtis are adorned with yellow, orange and purple flower garlands; one wears a teal and green garment and a crown, the other a red headdress. Tall brass oil lamps flank the platform, and a brass kalasha sits at its base. Two seated men in orange robes watch at left, one with a rudraksha-style necklace, and a brass vessel rests in the foreground. The scene appears to be an aarti or abhishekam-type puja.2009-12-29A photograph of a temple shrine decorated with marigold and yellow flower garlands.
