A photograph of an abhishekam being performed on a black stone Shiva lingam set in a black yoni-pitha base. A person's hand, wearing a red-and-white bangle, pours liquid from a gold kalasha pot over the lingam, and yellow liquid streams down its sides. Behind the lingam is a gold-coloured arched frame carved with makara-like motifs against a grey wall. In front sits a small gold sri yantra on a black square base, with white flowers placed near it on the floor. No person's face is visible and no a person is shown.
