A night procession photographed in darkness, with a blue beam of light cutting diagonally through the sky above. Crowds of people in dark clothing move beneath many umbrellas, some ornate with gold and red fringes, others plain black. Red flags on poles are held aloft among the marchers. Smoke or haze drifts through the scene. At left, a lit wooden structure and stage scaffolding stand against the dark, and at right a large decorated figure or float rises above the marchers.
