Outdoor photograph of a large black stone Shivalingam rising from a square platform in the middle of a rectangular reflecting pool, with a striped red and yellow base. A small group of people stands on a metal staircase and platform beside the lingam, some in red garments, and a red-and-white garland is draped on the stone. Behind the pool, tiered red stands hold many seated people dressed in white and orange, and red-brick buildings and potted plants line the foreground. Overcast evening light reflects off the water.
