A close view of a dark, wet stone Nandi bull statue with its head and face in sharp focus, water streaming down over its head and snout. Palm trees and green shrubs stand behind it under an overcast sky, with pale concrete posts and a distant white building in the background. No people are visible. This appears to be a Nandi abhishekam at an outdoor temple setting.
