A photograph inside a stone temple shrine. A man in a sky-blue dhoti and matching blue shawl with an orange border stands at left, smiling, one hand raised in blessing and bangles on his wrists. Behind him stand large deity murtis draped in garlands of yellow, orange, red, purple and green flowers; the central figure wears a tall crown and orange turban-like headgear, and a second murti wears a golden crown and blue sari. Brass oil lamps flank the shrine and a blue-clad figure sits in front of the garlanded arch. The man is a candidate for the page subject, but his appearance is not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so the label is unsure.

A smiling man in a light blue dhoti and blue shawl with an orange border stands before a temple shrine, making a hand gesture with one hand and wearing beaded bracelets. Behind him, large golden deity murtis with crowns and trident-like attributes are framed by an arch of multicoloured marigold and garland festoons in purple, green, yellow and red. A smaller blue-draped figure sits in front of the arch, also garlanded, and brass oil lamps stand at the sides in a stone-pillared temple hall. The man's appearance, with his shoulder-length hair, bracelets and light blue clothing, is not sufficiently distinctive to confirm an identity, so he is described only by role.2011-12-17December 14 20112011-12-14December 11 20112011-12-11 +1 copiesA photograph of a temple shrine decorated with thick garlands of marigolds and yellow flowers. A standing man in a purple dhoti and matching shawl with a red-and-gold border, wearing rudraksha malas and gold bracelets, smiles and raises his right hand in blessing before the shrine. Behind him stand two golden-hued deity murtis, one with a crown and orange cloth, the other in purple garments with a tall crown. In front, a purple-draped statue of a seated figure with a rudraksha mala is garlanded with purple and white flowers, and a brass oil lamp stands on either side of the platform.
