A photograph of a shrine scene. On the left a man in an orange-red dhoti and shawl, wearing an orange-red turban and a rudraksha mala, stands barefoot with his right hand raised in greeting. Behind him a tall gilded arched canopy frames a deity murti of a seated figure with a crown, decorated with multicoloured garlands of yellow, purple, red and green flowers and gold chains, flanked by two smaller figures. In front stands a golden vahana carved with a swan or bird form, garlanded, with brass oil lamps on each side and a tray of fruits on a red cloth. A woman in white clothes with gold borders stands at the right beside an air conditioner, and a red carpet covers the floor.
