A photograph of a row of women in a rural outdoor setting with tall palm trees behind them. Each woman carries a ritual offering on her head or in her hands: flat brass trays and bowls heaped with sprouted green grains, and silver-toned kalashas topped with green leaves. They wear saris in white, cream, orange, lime green, lavender and maroon with gold borders, and several wear rudraksha or bead necklaces. Behind them a small banner shows a figure and saffron flags fly from poles. The women stand close together and face forward. No one in this photo is identified as a person.
