Dusk view of an open paved courtyard leading to a small temple shrine with a sloped roof and a brightly lit deity murti framed in a glowing backdrop. A long red carpet and a striped blue-and-pink mat run from the foreground toward the shrine, lined by brass oil lamps on tall stands. Several people in white clothing stand and move near the shrine, with dark trees behind the structure. The scene suggests an evening ritual setting, though no clearly identifiable individual is shown.

Night view of an outdoor temple courtyard lit by tall brass oil lamps (deepa stands) with lotus-topped finials, arranged along a dark red carpet and a striped runner. At the far end, a shrine with an ornate deity murti decorated with colourful garlands and flower arrangements sits under an arched canopy.
