A large outdoor Shiva lingam is entirely covered in colourful flower garlands in bands of red, yellow, green, orange, purple and white, forming a tall decorated structure with a silver-toned yoni-shaped base and a pink flower on top. Behind it stand a red multi-storey building with balconies and a scaffolded upper floor under a pale sky. A few small figures are visible seated on red tiered steps at the lower left and right, but they are too distant to count with certainty. No a person candidate is visible on the lingam or nearby.
