A hazy outdoor procession crosses a concrete bridge over a river channel at a crowded riverside festival ground. A man in white sits atop a camel near the front, beside a tall striped pillar-like decorative pole. Behind him, numerous people in white and orange clothing walk holding orange flags on poles, with some wearing orange saffron robes and carrying orange sashes. A motorcycle with a rider stands at the left edge. Behind the bridge railings, makeshift tents, sand mounds, power poles and many other visitors fill the background.
