A photograph of a Rudrabhishekam ritual at night. Several devotees in white dhotis sit in a row, pouring liquid from long golden funnel-shaped vessels onto black stone Shivalingams in the foreground. The man at right, bare-chested with white ash markings and a red tilak on his forehead, holds a golden vessel and looks toward the lamps. A woman beside him wears a maroon blouse and white sari with white stripes on her forehead. Warm lamplight glows in the background.
