A close photo of a puja offering on a red-painted stone step. A hand in a grey sleeve and white garment holds a brass plate with a lit oil lamp (diya) flame. Nearby on a red and gold cloth sit brass plates with red and yellow flowers, a white statue or murti on a small wooden base, a brass cup with a spoon, turmeric or kumkum powder, a folded white cloth, and a small white bundle. Only a hand and part of a sleeve are visible, so no full person appears.
