Close-up of bare feet resting on a gold tray during a ritual foot-washing or padapuja. The feet wear an orange-and-gold bordered cloth at the ankles. Around them lie white and pink flower petals, a white plumeria bloom, and green leaves. Silver bowls with embossed patterns and a brass vessel sit on the tray, and a hand with a flower or leaf gestures at the feet. No face is visible, so no person can be identified from this frame.
