A photograph of a padapuja ritual. A bare foot in the foreground rests on a golden tray, belonging to a person in an orange saffron garment whose lower body is visible. Around it are ornate silver plates and bowls holding red roses and petals, apples, a yellow mango, a white coconut, and small silver cups. A partially visible person in white with yellow clothing stands at the left edge, and a person with brown hair in an orange garment is seen from behind at the right. The arrangement suggests a ritual offering of fruit, flowers and sweets.
