Close photo of a puja offering arrangement on a gold tray. A bare foot in the upper frame, with an orange silk garment visible at left, places pink lotus flowers among silver bowls of white jasmine, red and pink roses, marigold-like orange blossoms, green leaves, and two red apples with vermilion marks. A small brass kalasha-style vessel and silver dishes surround the offering. No face is visible, so the person is only a partial body with bare feet and orange clothing; no identification is made.
