A large black stone Shivalinga rises from a stepped water pool, its base wrapped in garlands of orange and yellow marigolds and water jets spraying around it. Many people wade and bathe in the water around the linga, some in white clothes, with hands raised. On the stone steps at the right, a crowd sits in white and colourful clothes, and an ornate festival palanquin decorated with flowers stands at the water's edge. A concrete building with windows stands behind the scene under a bright sky.
