Outdoor abhishekam at a temple: a man in orange robes with long hair and a red tilak pours water from a golden vessel over a row of dark stone Shivalingas, each draped in a white cloth with green borders and garlanded with white and red flowers. Behind him, other figures in saffron-orange robes carry golden pots, and a bald man in orange wears a gold necklace. Red and white striped steps form the backdrop.
