Close photo of an abhishekam being performed on a small bronze deity murti standing in a gold-edged tray. A priest in a saffron-orange dhoti with a maroon and gold border pours liquid from a polished brass kalasha over the figure, whose body is coated in red liquid. The murti holds a sword and a small bowl, with a tall crown and ornate earrings. Only partial arms and a seated figure in orange at the left edge are visible. No a person candidate is visibly present; the pictured figure is a deity murti.
