A home shrine photographed close up with red and orange flower garlands draped over framed devotional pictures. At center stands a framed image of a goddess with a crown, rich jewellery and a red-and-gold dress, her head and shoulders framed by a cobra hood. To the left, a black-and-white picture shows a seated figure with bare arms and a rudraksha mala, the image cropped so only the hand and a small coloured portrait in an orange robe are visible at the lower edge; that small portrait is a depiction whose identity is not established by appearance. Right of center is a gilt-framed picture of a blue-skinned deity standing in a temple gateway. In front, offerings include a small oil lamp with a lit wick, a brass bowl of yellow sweet, glass cups of liquid garnished with white jasmine flowers, and a copper bowl of yellow flowers and green leaves. No people are present.
