A photograph of a temple shrine decorated with thick garlands of yellow marigolds, red and white flowers. A young man with long swept-back hair, wearing an orange saffron dhoti and shawl with gold borders, a gold necklace and a red-and-white flower garland, smiles and raises his hand in greeting while standing to the left of the shrine. Behind him are large painted deity murtis: a figure with a crown and orange turban and a second figure in a purple sari with gold jewellery, flanking a central deity murti draped in flowers. Below, a padapuja-style offering displays bananas, fruit, brass lamps and a kalasha-like pot on a white cloth. Only one physical person is visible.
