Photograph of the white gopuram of a temple tower seen through green leaves, with a hill behind it under a clear blue sky. Several men in white and yellow clothing stand on a scaffolded platform at the top of the tower, with a small umbrella-like canopy over a central seated figure in orange. Scaffolding covers the upper tower, and striped poles run down its face. Workers or priests appear to be preparing the tower for ritual consecration.
