Outdoor photo of six grey stone deity murti statues seated in a row on low plinths along a dusty path, in front of an orange-red building. Each statue has a tall crown, multiple arms and a seated posture. Green shrubs, a hibiscus bush with pink flowers, grass and a pile of gravel with white sacks sit in the foreground. Behind them, a banner with a Kali-related heading and a colourful image of food offerings is partly visible. No people are visible.

A row of grey stone sculptures of seated deity figures stands on grass in a garden courtyard, with tall crowned heads and multi-armed poses. A stone shivalinga-style pillar and a carved lotus-base stone basin sit in the foreground, surrounded by green shrubs, palms and a tree with reddish foliage. Orange-painted building walls form the backdrop. No physical people are visible, and the figures are statues rather than living persons.
