A festive outdoor procession moves along a dirt road lined with palm trees under bright sunshine. In the foreground, several drummers and dancers in red and orange shirts with white dhotis and yellow sashes walk barefoot, playing drums. Behind them, a decorated ratha or palanquin with a canopy of teal and gold drapery and round ornamental panels is pulled forward. Large orange flags with a blue emblem fly along a red-draped pavilion edge. A dense crowd of devotees in white kurtas and white dhotis, along with women in blue and teal saris, walks along the road. No single identifiable a person figure is clearly distinguishable in the crowd.
