A temple abhishekam in progress: a person in white clothing with a red bangle pours milk or water from a golden pot over a black stone deity murti with a multi-hooded naga canopy. The murti sits on a red cloth draped over a dark stone pedestal, in front of an ornate gold arched backdrop. Liquid streams down over the pedestal and smaller carved figures below, with a small oil lamp at the lower edge of the frame.
