Outdoor procession in dusty ground in front of a temple with a curved gold-trimmed entrance arch and a green corrugated roof building behind it. An inscription on the arch reads ANANDESHWAR WITH ANANDESHWARI, and two deity murtis stand inside the shrine. Devotees walk in procession wearing white and saffron-orange clothing, many with orange shawls over their shoulders, and women in saffron saris and a pink and purple sari. A large white ceremonial umbrella with red trim and an ornate multicoloured umbrella are carried above the group. Several people hold orange and white flags, and palm trees and bright sky fill the background. No individual is clearly identifiable as a person.
