Photograph of a temple courtyard with a row of ornate metal deity murtis dressed in silk garments in orange, blue and pink, each wearing white flower garlands and red flowers, with tall decorated crowns. Brass kalasha pots with mango leaves and coconuts sit on silver-toned platforms in front of them. In the background, a tall orange-and-white striped wall, a stone temple arch and a few people in white and saffron clothing move about. The image shows ritual decoration rather than a person's identity; no person in the frame is identifiable as a person on appearance cues.
