A figure in an orange saffron wrap and orange turban stands with bare shoulders, back to the camera, holding offerings toward a deity murti draped in red fabric and garlanded with orange and yellow flower malas. Brass puja vessels, a kalasha-style pot and small offering bowls sit on the marble steps before the murti. The figure has distinctive orange saffron attire and a turban, but the face is not visible and the appearance is not sufficient to confirm an identity, so the person is described by role as a priest.2022-08-20 +1 copiesKASHI SARVAJNAPEETAM on 8/15/20222022-08-15 +1 copies
