Outdoor puja under a large tree at a shrine decorated with marigold and multicolour flower garlands. A seated woman in an orange-brown sari with gold border presses her palms together before offerings on a banana leaf and brass plates. Beside her, girls in red and purple dresses sit on striped mats with a mask-wearing devotee. Behind them, several people in white dhotis and masks sit facing a garlanded deity murti on a red-draped platform. Brass lamps with tall stands, a brass kalasha, orange canopy and flower-decorated memorial stones complete the scene.
