A temple scene with a gold-carved throne-like seat on the left. A figure in a maroon and gold-bordered garment, with a bare upper arm and bangles, lifts a large garland of red-pink flowers over a seated figure's head. Behind, a decorated deity murti in gold and bright garments stands with a golden staff. Nearby, a bald man in a white dhoti with a gold border and a lanyard stands with his hands raised, and a woman with a yellow tilak smiles at right. An older woman in white with an orange lanyard and a shawl stands in the background, with two more women at the back. Red drapery frames the scene.

A seated figure on an ornate golden throne with lion-headed armrests wears a red-orange turban, a red and white flower garland, and a saffron-red garment. The figure holds out a banana to a kneeling young man in a white checked shirt with an orange lanyard, who is at lower right. Behind them, a standing row of devotees in white and maroon attire watch; a woman in white wears a rudraksha mala, and a man at upper right wears a white dhoti with a gold-bordered shawl. A brass oil lamp and fruit offerings sit near the throne, and a wall air conditioner is visible. The figure's appearance matches the page's reference to a person, seated in a throne-like setting with a turban, garland and saffron-red clothing.

A photograph of a ritual scene at a temple shrine. A man in a rust-orange turban, orange-gold garments and layered bead necklaces stands at left, placing his hand on the head of a kneeling devotee in a white garment with a red sash. Behind them is an ornate golden shrine with a deity murti dressed in gold ornaments, garlands and colourful silk cloth. A gold rod stands in the foreground. Two women watch from the right, one in a dark top and one in white. The man's appearance with a turban, saffron-orange clothing and layered beads is consistent with a person performing a blessing at the shrine.

A seated man in a maroon-brown robe and a deep red turban sits on an ornate golden peetha throne with a red cushion, wearing layered garlands of yellow beads and pink-white flowers, a rudraksha-style mala, gold necklace and gold armlets. Two attendants with long dreadlocked hair and bare upper bodies kneel and bend close to him, one in white dhoti with gold border and one in saffron. Devotees in white saris and dhotis, one woman with a saffron cloth over her head, stand around him. Gold-framed temple shrines with flowers are visible behind.

A woman in a white and beige patterned top leans in and bends forward to greet them. Behind, a kneeling person in a cream dhoti-style outfit with a brown shawl, rudraksha mala and a tilak on the forehead watches. In the background stand women in red, rust and white saris, a golden bird-shaped sculpture with yellow and green garlands, and green foliage.
