Close view of a ritual puja table laid with brass and gold-toned vessels. Brass oil lamps with lit flames stand in the foreground and middle, alongside a white conch shell, a brass water pot with a spoon, a small brown conical shrine-like object, a golden standing figure in the left background, and orange and red flowers. Red-robed figures are partly visible at the top right, out of focus. No person's face is clearly shown and no one is clearly identified as a person.

A brass plate holds a small red-robed figurine of a seated guru with a tall orange crown, beside a white conch shell, marigold petals and green leaves. A hand holding a flower reaches toward the figurine, while another hand is folded in front of a second brass plate with red flowers. Brass bowls with a rice-like grain, a brass kalasha-style vessel, an oil lamp with a lit flame, and an incense stick complete the offering. Only two partial arms are visible, so no full person is shown. The figurine is a statue, so no in-person a person candidate is identifiable from appearance.2017-01-22A ritual puja setup on an orange-red cloth, shot in shallow focus.
