A photograph of an outdoor sacred tank at dawn or dusk, with a large black Shivalinga rising from a square platform in the middle of still water. Rows of black Shivalinga-shaped stone forms line tiered stone steps on the near side, and a low white-and-glass square structure stands in the water. Two white-clad figures stand near the steps at the far edge, and a few distant people are visible at the left side. Red-brick buildings, trees and a curved metal railing frame the scene, with a decorated arch behind the central lingam.
