A photograph of an indoor puja setting. A person with long dark hair and an orange-saffron shawl sits cross-legged at left behind a white-draped table. A man in white clothes bends forward at right, placing fruit on a brass plate. On the table are a brass oil lamp, a bowl of fruit and flowers, small red and white offerings, and a white candle. Behind them hangs a framed portrait of a seated figure with a crown and red-and-gold regalia on a throne, with a garland and a small plant at the frame's base. The scene looks like a devotional offering or padapuja in a home shrine.
