A large dark Shiva lingam rises from a platform in the middle of a tank, decorated with marigold garlands in yellow and orange and horizontal white stripes on its upper section. Many people in white clothes stand waist-deep in the water around the platform, some with hands raised or bending forward, while water sprays from fountain jets beside the lingam. Stone steps on both sides are crowded with more people in white, and a brick building stands at the right under a bright sunset glow.
