Photograph of a festive temple setting under a white tent canopy with several large deity murtis decorated with yellow marigold garlands and ornate silver-gold halos. The central figure is a multi-armed goddess with a red garment, holding a trident and weapons, seated atop a lion. Flanking her are other goddess murtis, one holding a veena. On the right, a seated man wearing a white-and-orange robe, a tiger-striped seat cushion and floral garlands is positioned near a silver-ornamented throne. A brass oil lamp, banana leaves, a fire pit with offerings and flower garlands sit in the foreground. The seated man is a single physical person, with no visible appearance-based a person cues strong enough to confirm identity.
