A close overhead photograph of a round silver plate offering arranged on a dark granite floor beside a brass plate. The plate holds a heap of bright red hibiscus flowers with stamens, long green beans, and round greenish-yellow fruits resembling small limes or plums. A painted yellow surface with green and white decorative motifs lies along the bottom edge. No people are visible; the arrangement appears to be a ritual offering of flowers, fruit and vegetables.
