Night photograph of a large crowd standing on tiered stone steps beside a white metal railing, with dark trees and tall bamboo poles rising behind them. Most people wear white dhotis and white shirts or wraps, with some in red, maroon and blue garments; several raise their hands in prayer or hold them up. Green leafy branches hang from the railing and a blue cloth is draped over one section. The crowd is dense, filling the frame from bottom to top, and no single figure can be clearly singled out as a central figure.
