The image captures a close-up scene of multiple individuals gathered around a weathered, dark-colored stone or metal brazier with an ornate, tiered roof-like structure, located in Xihu District, China. A vibrant orange flame burns within a black cylindrical insert at the center of the brazier, igniting numerous thin incense sticks already placed upright within. In the immediate foreground, a fair-skinned hand, adorned with a gold-colored wristwatch featuring a President-style bracelet, holds a bundle of dark red incense sticks, positioning them to light from the flame. To the left, other hands are visible also holding incense sticks directed towards the fire. To the right, hands hold additional pink-wrapped incense sticks and a red paper item, also near the flame. Portions of participants' attire are visible, including dark pants and dark sneakers on the left, and light blue jeans with white Crocs-style shoes featuring star cutouts on the right. The ground beneath the brazier is a paved, light gray surface.
