Close photograph of a bare foot resting on an ornate silver tray filled with red, yellow and white flowers, including red roses, yellow marigolds and white jasmine. The foot belongs to a person wearing a rust-orange cloth at the ankle, and a small brass or gold vessel stands among the petals. The tray sits on an intricately embossed silver table, with a carved silver pillar at right. This appears to be padapuja, the ritual worship of the feet. No face is visible and no identity is established from appearance, so no a person candidate is recorded.2018-02-13July 24 20142014-07-24Close view of a priest's bare feet and hands at a puja setup. The priest wears a red-brown garment with gold woven border. Before him is a brass tray filled with pink, red and yellow flowers, with a silver vessel and a small brass cup nearby.

A bare foot rests on a golden tray with ornate silver bowls holding flowers. A child's hand with gold bangles reaches to offer red and white flowers, including frangipani-like white blooms and a pink-and-yellow flower, onto a heap of red, white and yellow petals. A person in an orange and gold sari-border garment stands above, and another person's hand holding petals appears at the upper left. Only the feet, hands and arms are visible, so people are partially visible.2013-07-21Close-up photograph of bare feet resting on a polished silver tray filled with pink and red flower petals and a small gold cup or vessel. The feet belong to a person wearing a red and gold-bordered ceremonial garment, with a shimmering gold border, and a silver-toned ornate ritual implement rests behind them. A hand with a ring appears at the top edge. The setting suggests a padapuja, a ritual washing or honouring of the feet, with flowers and a dish of offerings. No face is visible, so the identity of the person cannot be determined from the image.2014-05-21July 28 20172017-07-28 +1 copiesClose-up photo of a bare foot stepping onto a gold-rimmed tray surrounded by silver bowls and small silver cups, scattered with red carnations, pink and white rose petals, yellow flowers and green leaves. The person's orange-red garment with gold border falls at the top of the frame. Only the foot and lower garment are visible, so the person is not fully shown. Silver and gold pooja vessels suggest a ritual foot-washing or padapuja setting.2013-05-25February 13 20182018-02-13July 28 20172017-07-28 +1 copies
