When it comes to temple photography and religious ceremonies, we often come across plenty of photographs that show beautiful scenarios, temple architecture, perspectives, rituals and many other relating to nature. However though, there are very few of those that talk about the objects used in the rituals, or the place where they have been sold! I therefore have tried to capture the beauty of these busy street markets at night that sell precious ritual objects, devotional articles and cherished offerings to the lords. 

The following series of photographs were taken in the streets of Jwalamukhi Temple in Dharamshala, Himachal Pradesh.
