Close photo of a padukapuja setup on a patterned carpet: a pair of black sandals with orange straps lies on a folded orange cloth, decorated with white plumeria and yellow flowers. Beside it a small gold deity murti and a red-and-green garlanded figure rest on a red cloth with a green cloth draped over the stand. Brass oil lamps with lit wicks, a brass plate of flowers, a glass of orange juice and a lit incense stick are nearby. A person in white clothing and gold bangles reaches toward the sandals, and another person's arm is visible at the top left. Other flowers and ritual items sit on the floor.
