A photograph of a devotee receiving a blessing. A woman with long dark hair, a leaf crown and a garland of pink and white flowers sits with eyes closed and a faint smile, her forehead marked with white paste. Two hands, one wearing a ring, hover above her head as if pressing or sprinkling blessings. Behind her are yellow and red marigold garlands, red fabric and a gold object. Her orange-brown top is visible at the shoulder. The foreground is blurred, with a leopard-print fabric at the far left edge.
