A photograph taken with the image rotated sideways. A woman in an orange sari with a red-and-gold border stands bent forward at left, pouring liquid from a golden vessel onto a dark black stone lingam on a gold yoni-shaped base, with white milk-like abhishekam trickling down. Behind her a second person in dark red clothing sits. At right, a painted orange figure seated with a white cloth and rudraksha mala is a deity murti or statue on a table, beside a framed picture, a wall clock, and a small calendar on a green-painted wall. The setting is a shrine with abhishekam being performed on a Shiva lingam.
