Dark red draped fabric and pink-lit pillars fill the background.

A bare-backed man in a saffron-orange dhoti holds a shining metal tray with yellow coconuts wrapped in yellow thread, a gold ornament and a small brass item, supported on his outstretched hand. White horizontal tripundra-like stripes mark his arms and back, with rudraksha beads on his arm and a brown rudraksha mala across his shoulder. Beside him a person in a brown saffron-toned robe stands with hands folded and a long pink and blue flower garland. Behind them hang yellow and red marigold and rose garlands.2016-12-19Close-up photo of two turmeric-coated coconuts wrapped with bright yellow cotton thread, resting on a silver tray filled with yellow grains of turmeric-dyed rice.
