June 30 20122012-06-30 +1 copiesClose-up photograph of a pair of bare feet resting on a silver tray filled with white flower petals and a pink lotus bloom. The feet extend from beneath orange-red cloth with a gold border, and a gold-toned throne or seat is visible behind. The feet are being offered a padapuja-style veneration, with a gold ring visible on one toe. The shot shows only the feet and cloth, with no visible face or full body.2012-05-19May 27 20122012-05-27Close photo of a bare foot in a reddish-maroon dhoti with gold border stepping onto a polished silver tray shaped like an elephant-headed vessel, resting on an ornate gold-plated pedestal. The tray holds white jasmine-style garlands, a red flower, and pink lotus blossoms. A gold ring is visible on a toe. The background is a gold-carved panel. The foot belongs to an unseen person, so no face or a person candidate is shown; this appears to be a padapuja-style foot-worship ritual.2012-05-21July 15 20162016-07-15April 17 20182018-04-17Close-up photograph of a pair of bare feet resting on a silver tray decorated with lotus-petal relief and an elephant-head handle, with white flowers and a pink lotus bloom scattered around them. The feet emerge from a saffron-orange draped garment with a gold-bordered hem, set against an ornate gold-toned throne or pedestal. The scene reads as a foot-worship ritual (padapuja) before a seated figure whose face and body are cropped out of frame. The lower legs and feet are the only visible human body parts.2012-05-18Close-up photo of a padapuja-style foot worship. A bare foot in a rust-red garment with a gold border rests on a silver tray holding pink lotus flowers and white jasmine garlands. A silver elephant-shaped spout is at the right. A second person's hand, wearing a silver bangle, reaches toward the foot. Behind is ornate gold-leaf carved gilded woodwork, and a golden pedestal sits in the foreground.2012-05-21 +2 copiesMay 13 20122012-05-13 +1 copiesClose-up of a bare foot resting on a polished silver padapuja tray. The foot wears a gold toe ring set with a red stone, and the person's clothing above it is a red-and-gold striped garment. Pink lotus flowers and white jasmine-like flowers are scattered around the foot on the tray, and the surrounding area is ornate gold. Only a foot and leg are visible, with no face shown, so no person can be identified.2012-05-14 +1 copiesApril 28 20142014-04-28 +3 copiesClose-up photo of bare feet resting on a gold-embossed tray during a padapuja ritual. The feet wear a fold of orange saffron cloth at the ankle and are decorated with a garland of white jasmine flowers across the toes. Silver and gold ritual vessels surround them, including silver bowls with white flowers, a pink lotus, a red apple, a silver spouted vessel and small gold-topped containers. A hand in the lower left holds a silver cup or spoon for pouring. The feet appear to belong to a person seated above the frame, so the visible body is limited to the feet and hands.2010-08-30
