A photograph of an evening procession on a dirt road lined with grass and trees. In the foreground, a group of about a dozen people in white dhotis and white shirts or wraps carry a long bamboo pole from which a large orange cloth hangs. Several devotees in white garments walk alongside, some holding small decorated orange-and-gold banners on poles and drums. Ahead on the left, a tractor pulls a decorated flatbed trailer carrying a deity murti under a red canopy. A man in white walks at the left edge, and another man in white stands at the right. Palm trees and low buildings appear in the background under a hazy sky.
