Red roses, white flower petals and green leaves are scattered on the tray and bowls, along with small golden vessels and a small silver box. The feet belong to a person in red-toned clothing seen only at the edge of the frame; no face is visible. The silver vessels hold offerings of liquid and petals, and the overall scene reflects a foot-worship ritual.2010-10-21Close-up photograph of a bare foot in a ritual washing scene. A person in orange saffron clothing stands with bare feet on a golden plate surrounded by silver bowls and trays. Pink lotus flowers and white jasmine-like flowers lie beside the plate, with a small gold ornament at the edge. Water droplets glisten on the foot. Only the lower legs and feet are visible, so the person's face and identity cannot be judged. Silver vessels and a gold tray fill the foreground and background.2010-10-26
