A large black stone Shivling stands on a red and cream striped platform in shallow water, with a silver band around its shaft and a garland of multicolour flowers arching behind it. Several priests in red-orange robes and rudraksha malas stand on a metal scaffold stairway at the upper left, one pouring or offering something over the lingam. Tiered red stands with many seated devotees in orange lie behind, and the scene is mirrored in still water.
