A shirtless priest in an orange dhoti and rudraksha mala pours water from a brass vessel over a bronze deity murti draped in a yellow-orange cloth and garlanded with yellow marigolds. Water splashes around the figure in a bright outdoor setting. Behind him, white metal railings and tiered red steps are lined with saffron and orange-clad devotees, some with red flags. Marigold garlands hang at the left edge. This appears to be an abhishekam with a visible deity murti being bathed.

A bare-chested priest in an orange dhoti and a rudraksha mala pours water from a brown clay pot over a bronze statue wrapped in a yellow marigold garland. The water arcs and splashes around the figure. Behind him, a tiered white metal framework lined with marigold and orange garlands rises beside rows of seated devotees in red and orange clothing, some holding red flags. Plain, unclear faces are in the background. The scene is set outdoors in daylight.2016-12-03A bare-chested man in an orange dhoti with a red-and-white sash pours water from a brass vessel over a bronze deity murti on a stand. The murti wears a garland of yellow and red flowers. The man has white vibhuti markings on his forehead and arms, a rudraksha mala around his neck, and red thread bracelets. A second brass pot sits on the lower right, and a metal staircase frame with a crowd in the blurred background sets the outdoor ceremonial scene, consistent with abhishekam at a procession or ritual event.2016-12-06A shirtless man in an orange dhoti with a rudraksha mala pours water from a golden kalasha over a bronze statue of a standing figure, which wears a yellow and white flower garland. The statue has a bare head and folded hands, and the pouring water shows as a spray. Behind them is a tall decorative column of marigold and purple flower garlands, and white metal railings frame the scene. Blurred tiered seating with spectators and red flags fills the background. The scene matches an abhishekam-style pouring on a statue; no visible person clearly matches the a person description, so the statue is a depiction of a figure rather than a living person.2016-12-03December 12 20162016-12-12 +1 copiesDecember 03 20162016-12-03A bare-chested priest in a white dhoti with white ash stripes on his arms and torso pours water from a brass vessel over a golden deity murti wearing a yellow garland and holding a small lamp.
