To the right, a line of people in red-orange robes stand along the roadside, some holding drums and one holding a long staff. Red fairy lights hang among trees on the right, and a fence and a small stack of stones appear on the left. Visible people are a group of about ten to twenty in saffron robes, with the figure on the float not clearly identifiable. This appears to be a nighttime procession.2017-11-15February 17 20162016-02-17 +1 copiesNight procession on a dirt road lit by floodlights, with a illuminated decorated chariot or palanquin with a red and white umbrella canopy and fairy lights in the background.

Several dozen people line both sides and walk along it: children and adults in saffron-orange garments on the left and right, and men and women in white dhotis and saris near the palanquin. A torch or lamp light is visible at the front of the procession. The scene is dark with a bright glow around the palanquin.2016-02-17
