A wet, rain-slicked town street in Tamil Nadu with shops on both sides, blue and white storefronts, a tall gopuram temple tower with painted sculpted figures on the upper right, and a white van and a white hatchback car in the foreground. Yellow auto-rickshaws and a few cyclists travel down the road, and several pedestrians stand or walk along the left sidewalk, some in white dhotis and saris. Hanging signboards and banners in Tamil script line the street under overhead power lines and a cloudy grey sky. No ritual or a person depicted; the scene is a street view on the procession route.
