A photograph of a large, ornately decorated yellow-faced Durga deity murti with multiple arms, holding a trident and other weapons, adorned with gold-and-white embellishments and garlands. In the foreground, a bare-backed person with long dark hair and a red-and-white garland stands on a white railing staircase, raising hands in worship before the murti. Beside them, a bare-chested attendant in orange cloth holds a silver tray of flowers and offerings, while another shaved-headed attendant in orange stands near the bottom left. A corporate-style digital clock on the wall reads 11:26, and a small loudspeaker hangs under a white tent canopy. Overhead, a camera on a tripod is visible at right beside decorated deity figures.
