A road procession seen from behind. In the foreground a figure in an orange sleeveless top and red-orange lower cloth walks beside a man in white kurta and dhoti with an orange shawl over his shoulder, both in sandals. Behind them a golden palanquin decorated with marigold and flower garlands carries two deity murtis, with a kalasha-like finial and a trident visible at the left. A white-clad figure holds a multicoloured fringed canopy at the left edge, a green bus stands at right, and white-clad devotees follow. Bright daylight casts long shadows on the asphalt road.
