Abhishekam being performed on two deity murtis in a gilded temple shrine. A priest in an orange saffron wrap and rudraksha malas pours liquid from a brass vessel over a figure of a multi-armed goddess, with white powder or water spraying in the air. Beside her, a blue-skinned deity murti holding a trident is also being bathed. The background is an ornate gold lattice screen with cutout quatrefoil panels. Caption text reads Durga and Mariamman Abhishekam during the Nithyanandotsavam Purvanga Utsavam Day 1. Only the priest's arms and torso are visible; no other physical people appear.
