A photograph of two devotees in white clothes with orange shawls decorating a blue-skinned Kali deity murti with gold and jewelled ornaments, a crown and a raised sword. The woman on the left, with hair in a ponytail, and the man on the right, both in white with orange shawls, are bent over a red cloth at the base of the statue, handling a dark-haired head placed on the cloth. A plain blue wall forms the background. No visible person matches the a person appearance cues, so the a person field is none.
