An aerial photograph, taken from a rooftop edge, of a large crowd gathered outdoors on a dirt ground for a procession. Many people in white clothing hold orange flags and white placards, and several are walking in a dense line along a path. A red tent canopy stands at the upper left beside banana plants and bamboo poles, and a palanquin-like decorated structure with gold and orange elements appears at the left. A corrugated tin roof fills the lower right foreground. The crowd is too dense to count precisely and extends well beyond the visible frame.
