Close view of a homa fire pit built from stacked red and yellow bricks, with tall orange flames rising from the centre. Flower petals, scattered rice grains and a few incense sticks lie on the brick ledges around the fire. A polished copper bowl with engraved floral borders sits on the left beside a small brass pot, both holding offerings. Blurred red and maroon cloth appears in the background. No people are visible, only the ritual setup of the fire offering.
