A photograph of an illuminated shrine at night, with a dark surround and a golden arch framing a pair of deity murtis draped in flower garlands of red, yellow, green and white. Several priests in saffron-brown and reddish dhotis and shawls stand around the central murti, one pouring liquid from a vessel over the figures in an abhishekam, while a standing attendant at right is at the side. Oil lamps stand on tall stands at the sides of the platform, and a dark altar with a small decorated object sits in front.
