Close-up photograph of bare feet resting on a bed of flowers during a padapuja ritual. The feet, one slightly raised, belong to a person wearing a saffron-orange garment with a gold border. Around them lie red carnations, pink orchids, white and orange blossoms, yellow petals and green leaves. Silver bowls and a silver spouted vessel surround the feet, and rudraksha malas drape across the flowers at right. The setting suggests a foot-worship ceremony with floral offerings.
