Night procession with a silver palanquin carried on poles by men in white dhotis with gold borders and bare upper bodies. A seated figure in a dark cap and orange-red shawl, garlanded with flowers, sits under the silver canopy, appearing to be a person by appearance cues of a garland and shawl, though the view is partial. Ornate silver-and-gold ratha or chariot-like vehicles with flower garlands and deity murtis stand behind, lit by lamps and string lights. Several men in orange and white robes walk alongside, some holding long silver staffs, and a devotee in white dress and dark-framed glasses stands near the front. The palanquin is decorated with silver repoussé tree motifs and carries marigold offerings on its base.
