A large floral decorative structure dominates the outdoor scene, built from densely strung marigold and garland flowers in red, yellow, orange, green, purple and white. Its tall upper section curves into stylised serpent-like or horn-like forms topped with a pink tuft, and a central panel is framed by a red garland border. Below, a wide tiered base of colourful flower festoons hangs over a stone stepped amphitheatre lined with rows of small lamps. A red multi-storey building and a rooftop framework stand behind, with a few seated people visible at the lower left and right edges of the steps.

A large outdoor Shiva lingam is entirely covered in colourful flower garlands in bands of red, yellow, green, orange, purple and white, forming a tall decorated structure with a silver-toned yoni-shaped base and a pink flower on top. Behind it stand a red multi-storey building with balconies and a scaffolded upper floor under a pale sky. A few small figures are visible seated on red tiered steps at the lower left and right, but they are too distant to count with certainty. No a person candidate is visible on the lingam or nearby.2015-07-31July 31 20152015-07-31July 31 20152015-07-31July 31 20152015-07-31A large floral Shiva lingam stands in the middle of a pool at an outdoor ashram, decorated with garlands in red, yellow, orange, green, purple and white. The base is wrapped in striped flower bands and scalloped petal borders, and a flower arch rises behind the central stone, with a small figure in red and gold clothing seated at the top of the arch. Tiered stone seating behind the pool holds a few people in white clothes sitting in rows, and a red brick building forms the backdrop. Water flows over the edge of the base, and a pool railing lies in the foreground.2015-07-31Outdoor photograph of a large Shiva lingam set atop a tall, ornate pedestal heavily decorated with garlands of orange, yellow, white and purple flowers, with a vertical garland arch framing the lingam. Several saffron-robed sannyasis stand or sit on the top of the structure near the lingam. Tiered red stone steps in the foreground hold seated devotees in white clothing, and a red multi-storey building with a water tank sits behind the scene. The setting suggests a temple tank or ghat ceremony with flower-decorated lingam worship, consistent with a puja or abhishekam procession.2015-02-17 +1 copiesJuly 31 20152015-07-31A large photograph of an elaborately decorated Shiva lingam standing on a flower-draped platform outdoors.
