A procession at the Sri Rajarajeshwari Procession during Rajarajeshwari Brahmotsavam Day 10. Three deity murtis sit on a gold-framed red palanquin under a blue and orange fringed canopy, with yellow marigold garlands on the figures; the central deity wears a blue and pink gown and a crown. In the foreground a figure in a saffron-orange garment with a shaved or cropped head pulls the palanquin pole, while another person in orange stands beside a large red face-painted guardian mask with a moustache. Trees and a gold temple-like structure appear behind.
