Outdoor temple procession with a group of young male drummers wearing saffron-orange dhotis and bare upper bodies, many wearing rudraksha malas and white ceremonial necklaces. They play large hand drums, some held horizontally on shoulder straps, while bystanders watch from the left and a woman in pink and a woman in white hold up phones. Behind them are a red-and-gold temple structure with hanging festival decorations, a concrete wall and palm trees under a bright sky. The scene matches a drum procession at a festival, with no visible a person candidate.2018-12-22 +2 copiesDecember 22 20182018-12-22 +1 copiesA procession of young men in saffron-orange dhotis, shawls and orange turbans, many wearing rudraksha malas and bangles, walks along a paved courtyard beside green trees.

Some drummers hold smaller drums and one plays a cymbal. A man in a teal shirt sits at the upper right, and others stand in the background.
