June 12 20142014-06-12Close-up photograph of a pair of bare feet resting on a brass tray filled with flower garlands and petals, a padapuja-style foot worship. The feet wear a maroon garment with gold border at the top left, one foot with a visible toe ring area. The tray holds yellow marigolds, pink and red roses, and white jasmine strands, with a brass vessel with a small golden cap near the feet.
