A photograph of a crowded temple procession on a street, with many children in pink and white uniforms seated or standing closely together on the roadway. Behind them a decorated deity palanquin or ratha with ornate red and gold canopy and figures is carried along, and a tent-like pavilion with a banner and a loudspeaker stands at the right. Several men in white dhotis and white shirts move through the crowd near the front, one bald-headed man in a light shirt in the foreground. Yellow and orange flower garlands and a gold-trimmed decorated structure are visible. The scene suggests a street procession with devotees gathered along the route.
