Close photograph of brass oil lamps (diyas) burning on polished brass trays in a temple setting. Several lamps with lit wicks and flames sit on a large round tray, with a smaller tray of lamps in the foreground. A hand wearing a purple beaded bracelet lights or adjusts the lamps, a folded white cloth lies beside them, and incense sticks and used matches rest on the ledge. Tall brass pillars and wisps of incense smoke surround the scene. No people's faces are visible.
