A photograph of a man in a rust-orange wrap with long, dreadlocked black hair hanging down his back, standing with his palms joined in prayer before a black stone deity murti at night. The murti is decorated with white cloth, garlands and red flowers and sits within a black arched frame beside a small glass-fronted niche. A golden metal donation box sits on the step, with red and patterned rugs on the floor and potted plants around. Red walls and a lit lamp complete the courtyard setting. The figure is shown from behind, with a visible rudraksha-style bead necklace on his neck. Appearance-based label: a person, shown in person in the courtyard, performing puja at the shrine.
