Outdoor procession photographed from below against a pale sky. In the foreground a hand raises a long pole flying a red-maroon flag printed with a portrait of a bare-chested figure in orange-saffron clothing. An ornate orange canopy with gold fringe stands at right. Along the roadside, a crowd of devotees and onlookers, several wearing face masks, lines the route beside parked white vehicles and trees. Colourful decorated structures appear at the lower right near the crowd.

A procession at an outdoor event where several red flags are carried aloft, each printed with a smiling portrait of a man wearing an orange turban, orange clothing, and long dark hair. Among the marchers, a man in front holds a flag and wears a white dhoti and a red-orange cloth draped over his shoulder. Behind him a man in a white garment and a woman in dark clothing walk in the crowd, and a younger man wears a tall orange turban with beaded necklaces. Dark umbrellas and green and blue canopies rise above the crowd under a pale sky, with bare trees at the right edge. The flags are the prominent subject, and the portraits on them are printed depictions rather than physical people.

A red triangular flag on a pole dominates the frame, printed with a smiling woman in an orange-yellow head wrap and a red bindi, her dark hair falling down. Behind it, an orange-and-yellow canopy umbrella with sequined trim and a gold-and-red decorated palanquin-style structure sit among a crowd in procession. Other red flags wave on the right, and orange and white tents stand in the background. Several people in saffron and white clothing are visible at the edges of the crowd.

A large crowd fills a dusty street during a procession. In the foreground a red flag bears a printed portrait of a bearded man wearing a yellow turban, and it is held aloft on a pole. Behind it, several ornate umbrellas in red, purple, blue and yellow with embroidered borders and tassels are carried above the crowd, alongside more red flags. Devotees press together at the roadside, and brass instruments are visible at right. Trees and red-flowering branches frame the background. The flag portrait is a depiction on cloth and is not a physical person.

A street procession under a clear blue sky. A large saffron-orange flag with a blue stripe flies on a pole at left, and several colourful ceremonial umbrellas with green, yellow, red and blue panels and fringed edges are held aloft. Under the red-and-yellow umbrella at centre, a man in an orange robe with a shawl and a ceremonial staff stands raised above the crowd, and a bald man in an orange garment stands nearby. Bunches of colourful balloons in pink, orange, green and blue are tied near the umbrellas. Crowds of people in white and orange clothing press along the roadside, some with raised hands, and an ornate metal decorative panel is at left.
