Photograph of a temple shrine with a red-faced deity murti framed by a golden arched backdrop and a blue cloth behind it. The deity is heavily garlanded with yellow, orange and white flower garlands and marigolds, with a large red-and-gold throne base below. A man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands at right beside a brass oil lamp, his face turned toward the shrine. A smaller garlanded figure and a gold-topped canopy appear at lower left.

Behind the garlands hangs a blue cloth, and a large red carved deity face with a crown-like headdress sits at the centre, with another red mask-like face above it. A priest in white dhoti and an upper cloth with a red border stands at the left of the doorway holding a small lamp or vessel toward the shrine. In the lower right, a seated person in orange robes is visible with a shaved head, partly cropped at the edge. Offerings on a brass tray include coconut halves, bananas and sweets, with brass pots nearby and a framed picture beside the shrine. Oil lamps and a bell are placed near the offerings.2010-08-09August 09 20102010-08-09
