A photograph at dusk of a tall whitewashed temple gopuram (tower) at Arunachaleshwara Temple, its tiers lit with small lamps and strings of lights stretching across the sky. Scaffolding sits on the top of the tower and small lit lamps or decorations crown its summit. In the foreground at the base, a seated crowd of devotees, many in saffron, red, white and colourful saris and dhotis, sits on the ground facing the tower, while a few standing figures are visible at the left edge. The sky fades from grey to warm pink near the horizon, and a dark tree stands at the left.
