A puja setup on a silver-toned metal tray covered with flowers. Yellow marigolds, red roses, pink and white petals and a white flower fill brass bowls and plates. Several brass oil lamps with lit wicks sit among the petals, with a white conch shell, a small brass bell and a brass vessel on the right. A pair of hands holding a small brass spoon appears at the top right, and an orange cloth lies beside the tray. Rudraksha beads and red flowers are at the left edge, next to a small framed picture. The scene shows an offering being prepared with flowers, lamps and sacred objects, with no visible person's face.
