A photograph of a procession at a crowded exhibition or fair, with red carpet underfoot and a metal barrier on the right. In the centre, a man in a saffron-orange turban and orange robe wears a long rudraksha mala and a gold-toned chain, and gestures with his raised right hand toward the crowd. To his left, a shaved-headed man in orange-brown robes and rudraksha malas walks with eyes lowered, and behind them men in white dhotis with gold borders and red-orange garments follow. Spectators in casual shirts and a woman in a purple headscarf line the barrier on the right, and red-and-white banners and signage fill the background.
