Several devotees surround it: a woman in a maroon and gold sari and a woman in a pink and white sari in the foreground, a woman in a white sari with a lavender border, and a man in white dhoti-style clothing with a sash behind the shrine, with a bare-chested man kneeling at its base. A woman in a pink and white outfit stands at the left edge. A tan brick wall, a parking sign and a Burger King sign with pine trees frame the background. The people are devotees carrying the shrine in a procession.
