A photo inside a home shrine room with a light grey wall and a tiled floor. A woman in a rust-red sari with gold-yellow borders and a rudraksha-style beaded necklace stands at left, smiling and gesturing with her hands. In the centre, a shaved-headed man in an orange-saffron robe with a gold-bordered wrap sits on the floor with his back to the camera, facing a raised altar. The altar holds a deity murti with a red crown and red garland, flanked by brass oil lamps (lamp stands) and a wall mural of a temple and trees. Floor offerings include brass plates of pink petals, fruit, a brass bell, a small kalasha-type vessel, a plate of flowers and an orange cloth. This appears to be a padapuja-style home visit ritual.
