Close-up photograph of a brass aarti lamp with a lit flame held in a silhouetted hand at the right edge. The lamp has a curved handle and multiple tiers, with a burning flame rising from the top. Behind it hang red curtains and a yellow-and-patterned cloth, with a white wall and red pillar visible. The figure is in shadow, showing only a sleeved white arm and a wrist band, so no face is visible. The background shows a doorway opening onto blurred greenery.
