A large black stone Shivling stands on a black yoni-peetha base in a flooded courtyard, its reflection shimmering across standing water. A garland of marigolds and red-white-green flowers encircles the lingam. Two people in saffron-orange robes stand on the raised platform beside it, with more saffron-clad figures descending the white metal staircase and standing on the red tiered steps. Red multi-storey buildings and a tree frame the background under an overcast sky.
