A marble-walled interior with silver-framed doorway frames the scene. In the foreground, dark silhouettes of seated viewers and a purple cloth edge appear at the bottom. The screen content is a depiction on a monitor; the camera body and blurred wooden floor sit beside it.2016-05-15Blurred photograph inside a white temple hall with polished dark floor. Three people in saffron-orange robes walk left toward shrine alcoves decorated with yellow and gold ornaments, red drapes and garlands. The first figure wears a long orange robe with a reddish shawl; the second wears orange and the third a long orange sari-style garment. A square white pedestal stands in the foreground. Decorated deity murti are visible in the illuminated shrines.2010-02-05Inside a marble shrine, a long-haired figure in a saffron-orange robe stands at a black Shiva lingam draped with pink, white and yellow flower garlands, placing a flower or offering on it. Two men in saffron-orange clothes stand behind, one holding a flower garland, and a third man in a grey shirt raises his hand at the left door. An elderly man in white stands at the right edge beside a carved wooden door. Behind the lingam are marble walls with Sanskrit inscriptions, a silver hanging lamp with an Om symbol, a small brass kalasha and a small deity murti in a niche. The scene shows a lingam puja or abhishekam in a Shiva temple.2010-01-28Inside a white marble shrine room, saffron-robed figures perform worship before a large black Shiva lingam on a black stone yoni-peetha base, garlanded with pink, white and yellow flowers. A tall man with long dark hair in a saffron dhoti and shawl pours or offers from a vessel toward the lingam, while a second saffron-robed attendant holds flowers and a shaved-headed priest in orange stands behind. A man in grey shirt and trousers raises a hand near an ornate carved wooden door. A silver hanging lamp with an Om symbol hangs above, a silver kalasha-style vessel sits to the side, and marble walls carry Sanskrit inscriptions. Offerings and brass items rest on a low wooden table in front. Candidate appearance for the tall saffron-robed figure with long hair and robes is consistent with a person, the figure performing abhishekam at the lingam.2010-01-28
