A photograph of an outdoor linga abhishekam at a temple ground. A large black polished linga stands in the foreground, dusted with yellow flower petals on its top. Behind it, a bare-headed man in an orange-saffron robe with a rudraksha-style beaded necklace stands on a raised platform near the linga, with a shaved head and a dark mala around his neck. Beside him, a priest in white dhoti and shawl pours or tends the abhishekam, and another white-clad priest holds a brass plate of yellow flowers. Further left, a few more priests in white stand on the platform, and a seated person in red sits on the steps. Terracotta-coloured buildings with green roofs and small kalasha finials stand in the background, with parked vehicles and trees.
