Several more dark stone lingas stand in the grass behind them under a cloudy sky with trees and a utility pole.

June 06 20212021-06-06Outdoors on a concrete path beside lush green grass and a wire fence, three women in saffron-orange clothes bend over a dark grey stone Shiva lingam set on a yoni-shaped base. Two women are at the lingam, one with hair tied up; a third person in orange sits partially visible at the right edge. A colourful patterned cloth with pink and blue motifs and a magenta border is spread on the path beneath the lingam.
