A photograph of a temple scene under a stone canopy with a blue sky behind. A man with long dark hair and an orange headband, wearing an orange robe and orange shawl with a white and red flower garland around his neck, stands at left smiling while reaching toward a large garland of white, red, yellow and green flowers draped over a figure at right. Behind him, a priest in white clothing and another figure in orange stand nearby. At right, a deity murti or statue is adorned with flower garlands, a purple cloth and gold-coloured feet. Strings of small bells and ornaments hang from the canopy. The man's appearance with long hair, headband and orange clothing is a person cue, though the identification is uncertain.
