Night procession on a gravel path, lit by a brightly illuminated ratha or palanquin decorated with flower garlands, tassels and lights carrying a deity murti. A central figure in a maroon-brown robe with a blue and white flower garland walks forward with hands folded, and an attendant holds a large maroon and gold ceremonial umbrella over them. A man in white dhoti and white shirt with a red shawl stands at left with hands joined in namaskar, and a line of devotees in white and saffron-brown clothing stands along both sides of the path, with a dark tree and building at the top.
