A photo of young boys in maroon and red robes with gold trim seated on a red brick ledge, playing long golden conical horns that point down toward the lingams. Several black stone shivalingams with circular bases stand in a row, with small steel bowls and offerings of white flowers and petals on the ledge. Several boys have white vibhuti ash marks on their foreheads. The boys in the foreground are blowing the horns, while others in the background hold theirs. The setting appears to be an outdoor temple abhishekam or ritual.
