Close photograph of a black stone Shiva lingam dressed for worship. An orange-gold turban wraps its upper part, a green silk cloth with embroidered pink and blue lotus motifs drapes its body, and a five-hooded silver naga canopy with green and blue gemstone pendants rises behind it. Red rose garlands hang on both sides, with rudraksha beads and a jeweled band across the front. The lingam sits on a gold-and-silver kalasha-style base over yellow satin, with yellow flowers and gold ornaments in the background. No people are visible.
