A photograph of a ceremonial flag or flagstaff decorated with garlands of yellow marigold and pink flowers, hung against a white cloth bundled at its base. Coconut palms and a blurred background suggest an outdoor ceremonial setting. A partly visible figure in orange clothing stands at the left edge, and a small garland with red flowers hangs near the top of the pole. Yellow petals are scattered on the ground.
