A close-up photograph of a ritual tabletop arrangement on a silver-embossed tray. A lit brass oil lamp (diya) with a flame sits at centre, flanked by brass cups, a small brass bowl with red liquid, a brass pot and a plate of flowers and leaves. To the right, a pink-framed printed photograph shows a woman in red garments and garlands, not a person candidate. No physical people are visible, so this is an altar setup for puja rather than a gathering.
