A large dark black stone Shivalinga rises from a stone base, wrapped with a garland of white and red flowers running down its side, with a silver band carved into its surface. Atop the linga, a bare-chested man with long dark hair and a yellow-brown cloth around his waist pours liquid from a brass pot. Beside him on a steel scaffold platform, another shirtless man in a loincloth and a younger attendant assist with the abhishekam. The sky is pale and hazy.
