A shaved-headed man in a red shawl and rudraksha mala kneels on a patch of earth between brick courses, placing red flowers or offerings into a brick-lined pit, with a silver or brass plate near him. Around him, several men in white dhotis and white shirts stand or bend in attendance; one older man at left holds a plate of flowers and marigold petals, and a young boy in a striped shirt stands among them. Orange and yellow flower petals lie on the ground and a white stone slab is at right. The kneeling figure is described by appearance as a person in a red shawl with a rudraksha mala, performing the ritual, while the others are devotees. A plain white wall forms the background.2001-01-11A photograph of a temple ritual under a canopy.
