A home shrine photographed close up. Framed prints of Shiva with Ganesha and Parvati and a child Murugan against a snowy mountain backdrop dominate the upper left. To the right a red-robed Lakshmi-like goddess holding a lotus, parrot and sugarcane stands beside a black multi-armed deity statue. In front are a lit tealight in a brass dish ringed with white jasmine flowers, a brass figure with purple flowers, a red ceramic lamp, a blue lotus, incense sticks and a small framed photo of a saffron-robed man holding a trident, a portrait I cannot attribute to any named person. A patterned blue cloth lies at left and a sliver of red fabric enters the frame at far left. No people are clearly visible.
