Night photograph of a large black polished Shivling at an outdoor temple, with a white-and-red garland of flowers draped down its side and a white horizontal band marking. Water or milk is being poured over the top of the lingam, with sprays visible in the air. A metal staircase with railings leads up to a raised platform where a few people stand or sit near the top, partly visible in the dark. Fresh flowers are scattered over the top. A low stone base surrounds the lingam, and a plain building wall with lamps and red flags stands behind it.
