A photograph of a temple abhishekam in progress. A hand from the right edge pours liquid from a gold bowl over a dark bronze-toned deity murti in the centre. Several similar dark bronze or stone deity figures stand on pink-trimmed pedestals, some crowned and holding attributes, one beside a bull. A large smooth stone form in the left foreground has hollow eye sockets. Deep maroon curtains hang behind the figures. No people are visible except the pouring hand.
