A large outdoor procession on a dirt road moves past a dry field under a pale overcast sky. Many men in white shirts and white dhotis walk among saffron-orange flags and red banners, and several wear orange or saffron-coloured caps and round orange badges. A young boy in white carries a large orange flag, and smaller children stand among the crowd. On the left a man in a light-blue shirt holds a red-and-white banner. In the background an ornate palanquin with a gold-and-red canopy and a decorated float rise above the crowd, and a tree and utility poles stand at the edge. Faces are too small to attribute to any specific person.
