Inside a thatched-roof temple hall with a lattice wall, a standing man in a white t-shirt and khaki shorts with a lanyard and forehead tilak walks past, while a young man in a white shirt kneels with palms pressed together in namaskar before a red-cushioned throne. On the throne sits a white statue draped in an orange-saffron cloth and a heavy garland of yellow and purple flowers, with a peacock-feather fan behind it and a small offering of flowers and fruit on an orange cloth below. Brass oil lamps, bells and plates sit on the floor, and framed photographs and a painting hang on the lattice walls. Some people in the background are seated.
