Overhead photo of a Hindu ritual arrangement. A large brass plate is heaped with flower garlands in white jasmine, yellow marigold, orange, pink and red blooms, and gold rosettes. At the centre sits a silver-toned ornament with inset red and green stones, flanked by two small silver vessels. Above the plate, a long garland of yellow and red flowers with rudraksha beads hangs over a pair of wooden sandals (paduka) decorated with a gem-studded knob. Behind them lie orange and blue silk cloths with gold border patterns on a red velvet cloth. The scene reads as a padapuja offering of flowers and sacred items, with no people visible.

A jeweled strand with red and green stones lies across the front of the tray. A bare foot with a toe ring is visible at the bottom edge, standing on a red and cream patterned rug. Setting suggests a temple or home shrine offering.
