A close, low-angle photograph of a ritual puja table draped with an orange cloth and a red-and-white checked cloth. In the foreground, a brass plate holds a mound of pale offering, and a brass lamp stand with a lit wick rises beside it. Further back, a silver tray holds small silver vessels, and a brass cup and a yellow cloth are visible. Several people in white clothes with yellow shawls sit cross-legged behind the table; one wears a wristband and a wristwatch, and their hands reach toward the offerings. Two of the people are partly visible at the frame edge.
