Night procession on a dirt road under a dark sky with a partial moon. A brightly lit, ornate multi-tiered chariot (ratha) glows orange and green with illuminated pillars and a carved horse-like figure at its front, pulled by a red tractor. Several people walk alongside: a man in white dhoti and shawl leading with a bare upper body, a figure in saffron/orange robes in the centre, a man in a white dhoti with a rudraksha mala walking in front, and others in white clothing behind. Distant lights and small structures are visible at the edge of the road.
