Outdoors under a large leafy tree, a man with long matted dreadlocks and bare shoulders, wearing a red cloth and gold armlets, stands facing a golden deity murti. The murti has a dark face, a red and gold turban, a jeweled collar, white flower garlands and gold-plated ornaments with raised arms. A small oil lamp with a flame burns on a metal stand in front, and a silver arch frames the shrine. The man holds a ritual item in his right hand as he performs puja.
