Street scene at a busy road junction in an Indian town under a pale blue sky. A white-and-red ceremonial gateway with a golden kalasha finial and a deity image in a niche stands in the centre, with a tall gopuram temple tower rising behind it among green trees. Traffic includes a red truck, a black hatchback, motorbikes with riders and yellow-and-black auto rickshaws. A few pedestrians walk along the roadside, one in a white shirt and dark trousers. A translucent windscreen edge frames the view from a vehicle. Kannada-script text appears on the gateway's signboard.
