A photograph of a ritual being performed in a bare-walled room with a yellow wall, a black backdrop and colourful tassels hanging at left. A shaved-headed man in white dhoti with a bare upper body and a beaded mala stands near a camera on a tripod, a sound recorder and a laptop on a carved table at right. Left, a man in a red checked shirt and jeans stands with hands folded, and a man in white kurta holds a small bell. A woman in a yellow and green saree with hands folded in anjali stands centre-left, while several women in orange and saffron sarees and a bare-chested man stand further back. The scene reads as a puja or homa preparation with an attending priest.
