Night photograph of an outdoor garden shrine at a temple-like compound. A deity murti draped with a colourful cloth and garland stands behind a low stone-and-rock border, flanked by bamboo and green trees. A long-haired man in an orange-red dhoti and bare upper body stands with palms pressed together in namaskar. Beside him, a man in a white dhoti with gold border and an orange shawl stands with hands at his sides. A camera operator with a video camera is at the left edge. Floodlights illuminate the scene, and a red wall and wire fence form the background.
