Close photograph of bare feet in orange robe standing on an ornate gold-embossed surface, with white jasmine flowers, green leaves and a sprinkle of petals at the feet. A hand reaches in from the right toward silver trays holding red apples, small silver bowls and gold-coloured decorative items, possibly coins or sweets. The ritual padapuja setting suggests foot-worship offerings. The orange garment and bare feet are the main visible human elements; no face is shown.
