Outdoor photo on a paved stone path before a tall, ornately carved stone temple gopuram with painted tiers. A group walks toward the camera in a procession. In the centre, a bare-chested man in white dhoti carries a bundle of bananas. Beside him, a bearded man in saffron robes walks with a hand raised. At right, a bare-chested bearded man in red cloth carries a kalasha-like pot wrapped in plastic, with a garland of yellow flowers hanging from his arm. Men in white shirts and white dhotis surround them, some wearing rudraksha-style beaded necklaces. At left, a video camera operator films the procession.
