Close photo of a temple abhishekam at a black stone shivalinga on a dark stone pedestal. A priest with bare upper body and a saffron-orange cloth draped over the shoulders pours milky white liquid from a gold kalasha pot onto the lingam, the liquid cascading down its sides. Behind it a purple cloth backdrop, gilded ornate temple framing, and a red and gold silk cloth hang above. A saffron cloth is wrapped around the base. Rudraksha bracelets are visible on the priest's wrist.
