A photograph of a procession taken outdoors in daylight. A man in an orange-red turban with a red bindi on his forehead, wearing an orange-saffron shawl with gold border and a long rudraksha mala, raises his right hand in greeting while smiling. He sits in front of an ornately carved red wooden float with floral relief. Orange bunting flags and yellow marigold garlands are visible in the background, along with a street building. The figure appears to be a probable Swamiji (probable) riding in the procession, based on the saffron turban, rudraksha mala and saffron shawl with gold border; the identification is uncertain.
