A large group of women stands in open courtyard in front of a white temple building with a red canopy decorated with orange and yellow flower-like motifs overhead. Most wear white and cream saris or white salwar-style outfits with yellow shawls, several with hands folded in anjali mudra. Some hold objects, and a few wear orange sashes. A signboard above the doorway reads Sri Ananteshwara Temple, and a cross-street sign in Tamil script is on the wall beside it. Potted plants and a dark metal post frame the scene. No a person candidate is visible.
