Outdoor temple-style ritual under a corrugated metal canopy with palm trees behind. On the left, a large deity murti sits inside an arched frame with a red cloth backdrop beside a blue-draped seat. In the centre, an ornate orange-and-gold kalasha-topped pillar draped with a white cloth stands as a priest in orange robes performs a ritual, while another orange-robed figure stands nearby. A dense crowd of devotees in white and pastel clothes, several women in saris, stands in front, hands folded or raised in worship. The a person candidate is not clearly identifiable in this view, so no appearance-based identification is made.
