A large outdoor procession of devotees on a dusty, open road beside a field, with a clear hazy sky and distant low buildings. Many people in white shirts and white dhotis or sarees walk closely together, some with folded hands or palms pressed in prayer. Several figures in orange and saffron clothing move among them, and a few women wear pink, red and patterned saris. Ornate yellow, orange and blue ceremonial umbrellas with decorative finials are carried aloft over the procession. Bright orange flags with a blue emblem fly from poles, and a truck with a loudspeaker is visible in the background. Crowd members are seen in front, with a small child held by an adult at right.
