Night-time ritual photograph at an outdoor ashram setting beside a fire pit. A seated figure with hands pressed in anjali, wearing an orange-brown cloth, a garland of red and white flowers and gold ornaments, sits on a gold-framed seat with a red cushion before a patterned rug. Beside him, a priest in white dhoti and orange-gold shawl raises a ceremonial lamp or vessel, and a woman in a red sari stands with hands folded holding a red object. Other attendees in white stand behind under a decorated umbrella. In the foreground a fire burns with offering trays, flower garlands and lamps on striped mats. Strings of coloured lights appear at upper left.

March 06 20162016-03-06Night ritual photograph at an outdoor temple-style setting with a large flame in a fire pit in the foreground, offerings and flower arrangements on the floor. A seated person in an orange-red robe with a flower garland and gold necklaces sits on a gold ornate throne with hands folded in prayer. A bare-chested priest with a red turban and gold chain holds a kalasha-like vessel with a white cloth over it, while a woman in a red sari, a woman in white, and men in white dhotis stand and watch. A gold umbrella hangs above. The scene reads as a homa or puja. Several people are visible; the seated figure's identity is not established from appearance.2016-03-06 +1 copiesMarch 06 20162016-03-06 +1 copiesMarch 06 20162016-03-06 +1 copiesMarch 06 20162016-03-06 +1 copiesMarch 06 20162016-03-06 +1 copiesMarch 06 20162016-03-06 +1 copiesMarch 06 20162016-03-06 +1 copiesMarch 06 20162016-03-06 +1 copiesMarch 06 20162016-03-06 +1 copiesMarch 06 20162016-03-06 +1 copiesMarch 06 20162016-03-06 +1 copies
