A photograph of a ritual in an open-sided pavilion with a bamboo roof and mountain view. A bald man in saffron-orange robes with rudraksha beads sits cross-legged before a yellow-flower and lamp arrangement, with silver bowls, kalasha-like vessels and lit oil lamps on the floor. Yellow and white ritual patterns are drawn on the cloth in front of him. Behind him a painted or framed deity image hangs under a gold cloth. A woman in pink sits to the left, a woman in red kneels at right, and a man in red with a camera on a tripod stands at the top right. Pink flowers and green leaves decorate the scene, and a microphone stand is in the foreground.
