Night aerial view of a riverside encampment at the Prayagraj Kumbha Mela. Rows of glowing sodium street lamps line sandy grounds and temporary tents along the river, and their light reflects on the dark water. Scattered small figures walk along paths, and an orange-and-red gateway arch stands in the lower foreground beside tent structures. The sky is a dusky blue-grey and distant city lights glow on the far bank.
