A tall, tiered gopuram of a South Indian temple dominates the frame, its surface densely carved with stucco figures, niches and miniature shrine motifs in pale grey. Several yellow-and-black auto-rickshaws are parked on a dusty street in front of it, and a few people walk or stand nearby, including men in shirts and trousers and a woman in a red-and-patterned sari. Cars and a bicycle are at the left edge, and small roadside stalls line the right. The sky is pale and overcast.
