Blurred in the background, two people wearing red garments with gold-coloured trim and a white headband are present, one at the upper left and one at the right with a white cloth on the head. The scene suggests a Shiva abhishekam, with the pouring of liquid over the lingam as the main act of worship.2013-06-10June 06 20132013-06-06November 06 20132013-11-06A photograph of a young boy in a maroon robe with yellow trim sits on red stone steps beside a black stone shivalingam.
