Outdoor street scene at a festival camp in bright daylight, with parked motorcycles and scooters lining a dusty road. Red flags stand along a tented area, and a large golden ornate palanquin or chariot sits behind a metal barrier. A man in orange robes with a shaved head walks across the road carrying a cloth bag, while women in saffron, orange and green saris and a man in white clothes move among the crowd. A tall unfinished wooden scaffold rises beside a beige wall at right.2016-04-24December 14 20062006-12-14February 16 20092009-02-16April 24 20162016-04-24A street procession passes a richly carved golden ratha, a decorated chariot, with red and green draped cloth, orange flags, a colourful hanging ornament and an umbrella overhead. Several men in white dhotis and shirts walk beside it, and rows of devotees in orange, red and yellow saris and robes line the road. A cameraman in an orange robe films from the right foreground.
