Outdoor photo of a large dark grey stone Shivling on a black stepped yoni-pitha base, its cylindrical form streaked with white paint or abhishekam residue and wrapped with a multicoloured garland of red, yellow, green, purple and white flowers. Three white tripundra bands are painted on the lingam. On a metal scaffold platform at left, several men in saffron and orange dhotis and shawls, some with rudraksha malas, stand and one bends forward; one central figure with long dark hair wears a red and white flower garland and stands near the lingam. Behind, a red brick tiered stand holds rows of seated people in orange robes, and a tree and blue sky appear in the background. A purple circular logo sits at lower left.
