A photograph of a ritual offering in a temple-like hall. A seated bearded man with long dark hair, wearing a maroon-red robe, a gold ceremonial necklace and a forehead marking, sits on an ornate gold throne with a large golden sunburst backrest and a red cushion, smiling as he reaches out. A younger man with curly hair, a beard and a tattoo on his upper arm stands at left in a white dhoti with an orange-gold border and white upper garment, holding a clump of pale food offering toward him. A silver bowl containing more offering sits on a green leaf in front, with a golden deity figure and a gold ritual staff behind them, and brass oil lamps at left beneath an orange-and-red decorated canopy.
