Close photo of a puja arrangement on a rust-red silk cloth with a gold zari border on a white marble surface. A hand wearing a dark rudraksha mala bracelet arranges petals and a green leaf on a brass plate of red and yellow flower petals, with a yellow flower prominent. Nearby are brass oil lamps with a lit flame, a brass bell, a brass kalasha-style vessel, a bowl of rice with turmeric, a brass lota, and an incense stick. Scattered petals lie on the cloth. No faces are visible, so the identity of the person performing the puja cannot be determined from this image.
