Outdoor procession photo: a man in a white convertible car, seated in the rear right, wears a deep red-maroon turban with a jewelled ornament, layered gold and beaded necklaces with a large pendant, and bangles, and smiles with one hand raised to his chin. A driver in the front seat is partly visible. Behind the car, several men in white dhotis and orange or saffron shawls, with rudraksha malas, walk beside ceremonial staffs topped with flags, and a woman in a turquoise sari stands at the left. A red brick wall with hanging decorations forms the backdrop, and marigold garlands lie on the car's bonnet. Swamiji (probable) is the turbaned passenger, identified by the crimson turban, layered gold and beaded necklaces, and bangles, with a role as the honoured rider of the procession.
