A home altar setup with no people present. A round wooden tray with a dark metal band sits on a navy and light blue patterned towel, holding three small bowls of red, dark grey and orange fruit. In front, bowls contain sliced avocado, cubed papaya, cucumber, mango slices and a halved lemon, with a pale pink hibiscus flower. Behind, a brass shrine holds a red deity murti, a small brass bell hanging on a silver frame with bells, brass plates and a brass lamp, with green houseplants on both sides of a window.
