A large crowd gathers at the edge of a water tank during a festival procession. Many people wade in the water in white and light clothes, while a golden palanquin with a red velvet seat, garlands and marigold-coloured decorations sits at the water's edge. Several men in saffron and orange robes walk alongside, one wearing a white garland. A bald man in orange clothing stands near the palanquin, with devotees pressing close around it. Children and adults in white and yellow surround the scene, and a pink balloon appears in the lower right.
