Outdoor photo beneath a large leafy tree at a temple-like site. Three people in saffron-orange and ochre dhotis or wraps stand before a dark stone deity murti draped in yellow, orange and red marigold garlands. A woman on the left wears a gold bangle and a white-and-red flower garland, and the man in the centre extends his hands toward the murti in a devotional gesture. Carved stone is visible at upper right. No person is clearly identifiable as a person from appearance, so no candidate is asserted.
