Near the railing, a figure in a saffron-orange robe with long dark hair points toward the shrine while another hand reaches out, apparently guiding or instructing the devotees. Behind them, a deity murti with a gold crown and bright garlands sits on a red and gold throne-like altar framed by an arch and orange drapes. On the right, a person in a plain white shirt with a yellow cloth over the shoulder stands in the foreground, and a framed portrait of a saffron-robed figure appears near the altar. A small orange-topped stool sits by the railing. The setting appears to be a temple darshan area with orange drapes and a metal guardrail.2009-12-03A photograph inside a temple shrine.

In the centre, a man in an orange robe with a cloth draped over his shoulder extends his arm toward the devotees, while a man in a white kurta with a yellow shawl holds a small orange-rimmed plate. Behind them stands an ornate golden shrine with a deity murti decorated with a crown and garlands, flanked by orange drapes. Several women in saffron and pink saris and a man in white shirt stand on the right and left, with hands folded in anjali. The orange-robed figure's appearance does not clearly establish an identity, so no candidate is named.2009-11-23December 18 20092009-12-18December 05 20092009-12-05A photograph inside a covered temple hall with a corrugated roof. A long-haired man in an orange saffron robe, with long dark hair swept back and bare feet, extends his arm toward a row of devotees pressed against metal railings on both sides. Beside him, a second saffron-robed man with maroon-edged cloth carries a brass tray with offerings. Devotees on the left in white and blue clothes press palms together in namaste, and on the right women in white and cream saris hold brass plates of offerings. At the far end stands a golden-arched shrine with a deity murti of a seated couple draped in flower garlands, with red drapery behind and brass lamps in front. The scene reads as a devotee procession or darshan line leading to the shrine.2009-12-18January 04 20102010-01-04 +1 copies
