A home shrine photographed from the front, arranged with flower garlands and fresh white and yellow blossoms. On the left, a framed portrait shows a smiling man in an orange garment and orange-marigold garland, wearing a bead necklace, labelled by the page as Swamiji; this is a depiction, not a person present. Centre-right, a large painting of Shiva with blue skin, a trident and gold ornaments is displayed. Brass figures, a lit oil lamp, small deity images and a brass pot sit on a glass table. In front, a plate of samosas, a bowl of dal-like sauce and a dark bowl of sweet offering are set on a grey patterned cloth, with no people visible.
