A photograph of a homa fire pit with tall orange flames rising from a brick-lined rectangular altar sprinkled with red petals. Behind it, a man seated cross-legged on a tiger-striped cloth over a gold-framed ornate throne wears a red-orange cloth, layered gold necklaces and a rudraksha-style beaded mala, with a red bindi on his forehead. Dark background, a small brass vessel at the lower edge, and a carpet at the left. Appearance cues are not clearly enough to confirm identity, so the seated figure is described by role only.

He wears layered beaded gold necklaces and a red tilak on his forehead, and his hands rest in a meditative pose. In the foreground a tall flame rises from a homa fire pit, with a copper vessel and a blurred figure in orange cloth at the lower edge. Two people appear at most: the seated man and a partially visible figure in the foreground. A lit oil lamp sits on a ledge in the upper background.2012-07-29 +1 copiesJuly 29 20122012-07-29 +1 copiesJuly 29 20122012-07-29 +1 copiesJuly 29 20122012-07-29 +1 copiesJuly 29 20122012-07-29 +1 copiesA seated man in red-orange clothing and layered gold and beaded necklaces sits cross-legged on an ornate gilded throne draped with a tiger-print cloth, watching a large open fire rising in the foreground. Several pieces of wood and small offerings sit on a tray near the flame, and a dark figure's arm reaches toward the fire. The setting is a dim hall with a framed picture on the wall behind. The scene resembles a homa fire ritual. The seated man shows long swept-back hair and a rudraksha-style bead necklace, a combination of cues for a person appearance, though the image is dark and the identification is uncertain.2012-07-29 +1 copiesJuly 29 20122012-07-29 +1 copiesJuly 29 20122012-07-29 +1 copies
