A photograph of a silver aarti lamp held aloft by two hands at the bottom of the frame, flames burning from several wicks and smoke rising. The hands belong to a person wearing a green garment. Behind the lamp is an ornate silver-toned arch or canopy against a deep maroon curtain, with flowers in yellow, red and white visible at the edges. Only the lamp-bearer's hands and green clothing are visible; no face appears.
