A photograph of a large procession of devotees walking along a tree-lined paved road under an overcast sky. Many people in white and light clothing, some in saffron-orange sarees and kurtas, carry orange flags with a red-and-blue emblem and hold white and red placards. A few children walk among the marchers, and palm trees and a red-roofed structure appear in the background. No individual can be clearly identified as a person, so the crowd is described by role and clothing only.
