A close photograph of a Hindu ritual setup on a low table. A hand in the upper centre pours water from a brass kalasha-style vessel with a lid. Two lit brass oil lamps flank the scene, one at left and one at right. Nearby are a brass cup with leaves, a shell-shaped brass item, and pale pink sheets of a flattened prepared material arranged on a dark tray, with small pink cone-shaped pieces. Orange-robed figures sit out of focus in the background, with only fabric and a hand visible. No face is shown. Abhishekam-style pouring offering in progress.
