A man in a white shirt kneels and washes the feet with a metal plate beneath; a young boy in white and orange sits beside him. A standing attendant in white dhoti holds a silver rod. Others in orange and white stand in the background. The seated figure appears to be a person, with long swept-back hair, and an orange robe and garland as cues; this matches the event as a padapuja ritual. Beside the chair, an orange drape and rudraksha malas are visible.2014-06-28 +1 copies
