A close-up photograph of a puja offering being prepared on a gold-coloured tray. Two hands, one pouring water from a small silver cup, arrange silver bowls holding white jasmine-like flowers, pink and cream lotus petals, green leaves and a whole apple. Ornate silver vessels with engraved rims surround the central tray. Only partial hands and arms are visible at the edges, so people are not clearly countable.
