A photograph of a priest performing abhishekam at a deity murti decorated with garlands of red roses, white flowers and yellow marigolds. A figure with a tied-up head of hair and rudraksha beads on the wrist pours water from a silver vessel over a white stone lingam-like form. He wears a rust-red top and a leopard-print wrap, with white ash marks on his shoulder. Behind the deity are gold-coloured metal ornaments, a trident, a drum-shaped object, a pink and green cloth and a rudraksha mala. A small brass object sits at the lower edge of the frame.
