A photograph of a homa fire ritual in an open-sided pavilion with white pillars and a white square fire pit. A bright flame burns in the pit, surrounded by flower petals and small lamps, and a red and white patterned mat lies beneath. Three men sit cross-legged in white dhoti-style clothing with orange-saffron shawls and beaded garlands. The man on the right wears a long orange-saffron shawl and sits by brass vessels and a ritual implement. Behind them stands a white wall with green trees, and at the left edge a deity murti is decorated with garlands and cloth.
