Night photograph of a large black Shiva lingam with a gold-plated yoni-pitha base standing at the water's edge of Vaidya Sarovar. The lingam bears a gold band with a silver ornament and red-and-white striped garland-like markings. Rows of red-and-white striped stepped seating behind it are lined with rows of small oil lamps, and the water reflects their glow. No people are visible. The lit structures and dark sky define the scene.
