A large black stone Shivling rises from a circular yoni-pitha base in the middle of a red-tiered stepped water tank. Water jets spray from the lingam and its base, and a strand of marigold garland drapes over the stone. A rust-red metal staircase with railings climbs up one side toward the top of the lingam. Two people stand at the edge on the left, one in white clothes and one with a bag, and a few more people are visible at the lower left and bottom right corner. Blue sky and trees surround the scene.
