Night photo of a procession on a dirt ground lit by a bright street lamp, with strings of coloured fairy lights in the background. Around two dozen people in saffron-orange robes and head wraps walk together, some with hands pressed in anjali. A drummer at the right carries a large white drum and beats it while walking. Several figures wear white and gold garments and others carry small items. The procession appears to be a ritual walk, and no individual is identifiable as a particular person here.
