Night photograph of a temple procession with two richly decorated vahana mounts lit by strings of bulbs, one a silver lion-like mount and the other a golden mount with a canopy, both carried on wooden platforms. Priests in white and orange dhotis stand on the platform near the mounts, some holding ritual objects, while a dense crowd of devotees and spectators is silhouetted in the foreground, some photographing with phones. A small ornate illuminated shrine or chariot stands to the left under the dark sky.

Two large decorated palanquin-style carriages with canopies and ornate painted elephant or horse figures dominate the right, with a tall tiered ratha-like structure on the left. Many people in the crowd fill the foreground, many in white dhotis and shirts, and a few figures stand on the carriages attending the deity murti seated in the central vehicle. Strings of lights outline the arches and canopies against a dark sky. No clearly identifiable a person candidate is distinguishable in the visible figures.2017-02-07 +2 copiesFebruary 07 20172017-02-07 +2 copies
