A photograph of a temple sanctum seen down a corridor framed by metal railings. At the centre, a large golden arch frames a deity murti pair seated on a raised platform, garlanded with red and yellow flower malas and draped in golden cloth. A small shivalingam with a silver mask sits before them, and a brass vessel stands on the stone plinth. In the foreground, a man in white dhoti and sacred thread stands near the railing, and a second man in a dark shirt stands at the right edge, with a faint shadow of a third at far right. Red carpet runs toward the altar.
