A photograph of a brick-lined fire pit glowing at night, with bright orange flames rising from a bed of burning material. A dark hand or arm reaches in from the left edge toward the flames, holding an object near the fire. The brick walls are lit warmly by the fire, and the surrounding area is dark. This is an evening homa-style fire at a ritual site, with no people or identifiable figures clearly visible.
