Close photograph of a pair of black padukas (sandal-shaped footwear symbols) on a leopard-print cloth, decorated with yellow allamanda and red ixora flowers, blue hydrangea-like blossoms, small yellow star flowers and a clear glass of white liquid. Two rudraksha malas with gold-toned caps and crystal-studded finials lie across the foreground. In the background are red and white flower garlands, a red and yellow drum, a yellow cloth and a golden lamp stand. No people are visible; the padukas are a ritual object for worship.
