A home puja altar set up on a patterned cloth with no people visible. Central framed painting shows Lord Shiva with crescent moon in his hair, trident leaning at left, and a red-and-orange marigold garland. Beside him a colourful painting of a goddess with a crown and red garland, and a golden-framed image of a deity inside a temple arch. Offerings include white rice in a blue dish, a bowl of curry, a lit oil lamp in a brass holder, plumeria and white flowers scattered across the table, small figurines and a brass kalasha-like vessel. A small framed photo of carved temple pillars sits in the middle. Several figurines of a bearded, turbaned sage in orange clothing stand at left.
