A tall ornate copper-toned finial atop a pole stands against a pale grey-blue sky. Its layered scalloped metal plates have dark studded knobs and a tuft of dried straw or grass sticking out at the top. A red saffron-coloured flag hangs from the pole, with orange ropes running down beside it. No people are visible; the scene shows a dhvaja (flagstaff) of a temple, raised for the dwajarohanam ceremony.
