Close-up photo of a ritual offering being poured on an ornate gold-coloured tray. A hand in a bangle reaches in from the top and pours liquid from a small glass or cup over a brass vessel. Red, magenta and white flowers are scattered across the golden tray, and silver bowls holding a red-and-white decorated coconut or fruit, rice-like powder and other offerings sit at the upper left. The scene looks like a puja or abhishekam setup. No person's face is visible and no a person candidate appears in the frame.
