Each pole has ornate tiered bases and finials, with dark green foliage bundles tied to the shafts and ropes running upward. Behind them a wooden scaffold structure rises, and a large crowd of people in mixed white and colourful clothing stands behind barricades with red and orange flags fluttering. Power lines, a small vehicle and a roadside tree appear at the edges.2016-04-23April 23 20162016-04-23A dark nighttime outdoor procession in a temple-style courtyard with a crowd of devotees dressed mostly in white dhotis and shirts, some in saffron and orange. Ornate decorated palanquin-style canopies with colourful patterned fabric and red tassels stand at the right, and a small ornamented ratha or chariot-like structure is in the centre. Strings of multicoloured lights and a green light glow in the background, and a man at left holds a camera. No individual candidate for a person is clearly distinguishable from appearance; the scene appears to be a festival procession.2016-12-23February 19 20152015-02-19 +1 copiesA large night-time outdoor crowd gathers on a green mat before an illuminated temple-style stage decorated with yellow lights, green and multicoloured garlands, and tall ornamental poles. A banner across the top reads in part of a temple or trust name. Many people in white shirts, saffron, red, yellow and green clothes walk or stand, some carrying bags or phones. A large lit screen at left shows colourful imagery. No clearly identifiable a person figure is visible in this crowd scene, and the people shown are attendees and devotees.2016-04-28
