Shiva is taking a break

They’ve put him under the tree for the time being, until further notice, until they need him again for some procession or festival.
He looks magnificent, as tall as he is, with all his usual trappings. If he hadn’t been standing there, I certainly wouldn’t have noticed the truly beautiful and varied foliage of the different trees, which stands out so clearly against the white sky.
