A woman in an orange saree kneels on a stone floor at night, lighting clay oil lamps arranged in a round woven basket. Several small flames glow among dried wicks and petals. Behind her a large banyan tree with aerial roots rises, and another lit oil lamp sits on a rough stone platform. Scattered yellow flowers lie on the ground, and a plastic bag rests at the lower left.
