A photograph of a devotee with long dark dreadlocks and a beard, wearing an orange-red jacket and rust-coloured dhoti, standing with palms pressed together in namaskar before a standing cardboard cutout of a smiling figure in a red turban, rudraksha mala and yellow-white flower garland, with hands raised in greeting. A small table draped in orange cloth holds a brass deity murti, brass bell, kalasha-style vessel, banana and fruit offerings, a brass bowl of white flowers and an oil lamp. To the left, a man in white dhoti with gold border and rudraksha necklace stands with hands folded, and two other men in casual clothes watch. The setting is a plain pale yellow room.
