A photograph of a golden-bronze standing deity murti being bathed with water poured from a metal vessel held by hands entering from the upper right. The figure wears a yellow-white flower garland around the neck and a draped sari-like robe, with one hand raised. Water streams down over the head and body, and spray falls around the base on a lotus-patterned pedestal. Blurred colored lights and rows of seated spectators fill the background.

December 11 20162016-12-11A bronze deity murti is being bathed by water poured over it at night. The figure wears a yellow-white floral garland draped across the chest and a tall crown, with a hand raised near the chest. Water streams down from above, catching the light and splashing around the statue. Behind it, blurred strings of green, red and white lights glow in bokeh against a dark background. No living people are visible in the frame apart from a partial arm at the top right holding the vessel.2016-12-11 +1 copiesDecember 11 20162016-12-11 +1 copiesDecember 11 20162016-12-11 +1 copiesDecember 12 20162016-12-12 +1 copiesDecember 11 20162016-12-11 +1 copiesDecember 12 20162016-12-12December 12 20162016-12-12A golden deity murti with a tall crown and ornate necklace is being bathed as water pours over its head and shoulders, spraying in fine droplets. Its raised right hand is open in a blessing gesture. Blurred figures in white and dark clothing stand around the murti, and a small pendant hangs at its chest. The scene appears to be an abhishekam in progress.2012-01-08A photograph of an abhishekam being performed on a gilded deity murti standing under an ornate golden arch. A person's hand, wearing gold bangles and a thin bracelet and draped in a red-and-maroon sari, pours a liquid from a silver vessel over the statue. The murti wears a yellow-gold skirt and a draped shawl, and holds a small cup-shaped object in one hand, and the golden liquid streams down its body. Droplets spray in the air. No visible face of a person candidate is present, and the pouring person's face is not visible.2011-11-01December 12 20162016-12-12January 08 20122012-01-08
