A large black stone Shivalinga rises from a circular base wrapped with marigold garlands in yellow, orange and white, standing in a tank of water. Many people wade and bathe in the water in front of it, some in white clothes and others in lighter shirts. Splashing water sprays from the lingam and base. On the stone steps at right, a decorated palanquin with flower garlands and a red-clad deity murti is carried, and a trishul stands upright in the water near the steps. White-clad devotees sit on the red tiered steps and a multi-storey concrete building stands behind them under a bright sky.
