A photograph of a garlanded shrine in a temple setting. A gold-coloured ornate canopy or palanquin-like structure sits centrally, surrounded by thick strands of pink roses and white flowers draped over the frame and a mound of white jasmine. Metal kalasha-style vessels and brass oil lamps stand at the base, with a lit flame at the top left. At the left edge, a person in an orange-red garment with a gold border holds a lamp or flame over the shrine. The shrine is a deity or ritual object seat, with no clearly identifiable person in the shrine itself.
