A photograph taken from a doorway of a temple shrine room with warm stone walls. In the foreground on the left, a man with his back to the camera wears saffron-orange dhoti and upper cloth, with white sacred ash markings on his bare upper arm and a red waistband, and holds his hands together. Beside him, a woman in a rust-orange sari with gold border and a gold hair ornament stands facing an altar with a brass lamp, flowers and brass vessels. The inner shrine holds a gilded deity murti and offerings. No face is shown, and the appearance cues do not establish a person candidate.
