A close photograph of a puja tray on a blue tarpaulin. A person in white clothing, whose bare arm wears gold bangles and whose hand holds a white conch shell, pours liquid over the tray. The tray holds a brass pot with a spoon, a brass kalasha-style vessel, a small brass incense burner, a small figure of a turbaned man in orange-red and gold clothing, a brass lamp, a bowl of white flowers and purple blossoms, and small bowls of grains and kumkum. Yellow flowers and petals lie on the blue cloth around the tray.2018-05-24August 22 20122012-08-22 +2 copiesFebruary 01 20172017-02-01 +1 copiesOverhead photo of a ritual setup on a woven straw mat edged with green trim, with a bed of dark rudraksha beads at centre. Two hands, wearing gold bangles and rings, handle brass vessels: one hand holds a brass bell-like implement and another pours or arranges items. A large brass bowl holds white and pink flowers, a brass tray holds a small deity figure with flowers and a brass lamp stand, and small brass cups and bowls surround the mat. A white conch shell, a burning oil lamp, incense sticks, a brass kalasha-style vessel of dark liquid and a basket of flowers complete the arrangement.
