Outdoor photo of a golden ratha procession vehicle parked on grass in front of a half-built brick building with bamboo scaffolding. The gilded shrine holds two golden deity murti seated side by side, one on a red-draped seat, with a kalasha-style pot and pots of offerings at its base. Two framed portraits are mounted on the cart's sides, showing a long-haired man with a white beard in a light robe and a man in an orange garment. Men in white dhotis and shirts stand and move around the cart, handling steel vessels. A dense seated audience of women in saffron, pink and green saris and some men in white sits on the grass in the foreground. Orange flags flank the cart and a white van stands to the left.
