Close-up photo of a black stone Shiva linga on a black yoni-pitha base inside a shrine with a gilded arch behind it. A person's hand, wearing red and multicoloured bangles, pours water from a brass vessel over the linga, and the water runs down onto a golden sri yantra metal plate placed in front of it. The floor is red granite and the walls are grey. Visible actions: abhishekam to a Shiva linga with a sri yantra. Only a hand and arm are visible, so no full person appears.
