A photograph of a Durga puja at a temple pavilion with a white tent canopy. Three large ornate deity murtis of goddesses with gold and sequined arches stand on a raised platform; the central multi-armed Durga holds weapons and a trident-like staff. Garlands of marigolds adorn the figures. In the foreground a bare-chested priest in a white dhoti and wrap stands with his back to the camera, and a young boy with white tilak marks and beaded necklaces watches. A man in white with tilak and glasses sits at lower right beside an open book and brass lamps. A digital clock reads 10:16 at top center.
