A photograph of visitors walking through an orange-draped tent corridor on a brick path at a temple-style pavilion. Men in shirts, sweater vests and a white dhoti stroll past, and a uniformed security guard in camouflage stands at right beside a carved stone pillar. At the far end, a golden throne-like shrine holds a deity murti beneath lamps and chandeliers, with a portrait display and banners on the walls. No one is clearly identifiable as a person in the visible scene.

February 07 20132013-02-07A crowded tented temple interior with red and orange draping, colourful striped pillars and hanging chandeliers. A large gilded framed image of a deity murti, seated figures in gold, stands at the back above a golden throne. Devotees in mixed dress crowd the floor: an older woman in a pale shawl with a red-and-orange border and a man in a brown felt hat, a woman with a long grey braid in a green shawl, and a child in grey. On the right, several men in white ritual clothes stand and attend, one with his hands on another man's head in blessing, while a man in an orange vest and white shirt stands in the foreground. The scene suggests an ongoing darshan or puja gathering, with several people visible and no clear identification of anyone present.2013-02-06 +1 copiesFebruary 12 20132013-02-12February 05 20132013-02-05A photograph of a crowd gathered under an orange and white canopy decorated with hanging lanterns and painted wooden poles.
