A photograph of a temple shrine seen through metal railings under a corrugated roof. Two large deity murtis sit side by side on a pink and orange base beneath a golden arched canopy with orange-gold drapery. The figure on the left wears a red and orange crown-like headdress, a red garland and a bead necklace; the figure on the right wears a gold crown, a blue garment and a flower garland. A kalasha with a red flower garland and a sivalingam-like form stand in front. A shaven-headed priest in orange robes kneels at the lower left with hands folded, and a red cloth hangs on the left. Overhead are fluorescent tubes, fans and cables.
