A photograph of a padapuja ritual under an open-sided canopy. A seated man on a gold, carved throne with a red cushion wears a rust-red robe and a white flower garland, with long hair falling down his back and a full beard. Two devotees kneel before him: a woman in a green blouse and peach saree adorns his feet with flowers, while a bare-chested man in white dhoti with a yellow border washes or offers at his feet. A third person stands in the background in a dark top, and a man at left in white dhoti with a rudraksha mala presses his palms together. The throne sits on a gold-trimmed platform, with a striped mat, brass vessel, flowers and a golden parasol overhead.
