Close-up photo of a padapuja ritual: a bare foot in orange cloth rests on a gold tray decorated with white jasmine flowers, while a small gold kalasha-shaped vessel stands nearby. Surrounding silver bowls hold milk, sandal-coloured paste and white flower petals. The person's bare feet and orange garment are the main subjects; only the foot and lower garment are visible, and the ritual is a foot-worship offering.

August 03 20102010-08-03Close-up photograph of a pair of bare feet resting on an ornate gold tray during a padapuja ritual. The feet belong to a person wearing saffron-orange robes, and white jasmine flowers are placed between the toes and around the ankles. Silver bowls with offerings surround the gold tray, and ornate gold filigree decorates the base. The feet are the only visible body parts, and the wearer's identity cannot be determined from this view.2010-08-01October 23 20102010-10-23 +1 copiesAugust 09 20102010-08-09October 23 20102010-10-23 +1 copiesOctober 11 20102010-10-11 +1 copiesAugust 16 20102010-08-16October 23 20102010-10-23 +1 copiesClose-up photo of a padapuja ritual: a bare foot in focus, wrapped in orange cloth at the ankle, with pink lotus blossoms, white jasmine-like flowers and a yellow marigold garland with green leaves resting on and around it.

Around the feet are silver bowls holding brown paste and white flowers, and many small gold-coloured pots and ornate gold vessels crowd the tray. A partially visible person with short hair and an ear stands at the right edge, looking down at the offering. The feet and robe are of a seated person being worshipped; no face is visible, so no identification is made.2010-08-03August 08 20102010-08-08 +1 copies
