A photograph of a ritual abhishekam in progress. A figure in red and gold ceremonial dress, with a rudraksha mala and gold bangles, pours milk from a golden vessel over a dark stone shivalinga. Milk streams down the stone. Behind them, garlands of pink, yellow and purple flowers hang beside a red cloth and a deity murti. One other partially visible attendant in saffron stands at left, and another person's arm and head appear at right edge.
