A group of about thirty devotees stands on red-and-white striped temple steps in front of the entrance of the Sri Anandeshwara Temple. Most wear plain white ritual clothing, several with rudraksha malas. Two women in red and orange saris stand at the left edge, a man in white with a mala stands front center, and a small child in white stands at the right. A banner over the doorway reads Sri Anandeshwara Temple, and a small sign says no photo and video cameras allowed. Potted plants flank the entrance. No one is clearly identifiable as a person from appearance, so no candidate is marked.
