A hazy outdoor procession crosses a long wooden pontoon bridge lined with red and white striped fence posts at the Kumbh Mela. Many devotees in saffron, orange and white clothes walk along the bridge, with orange flags flying above them. A large white banner with a printed portrait of a smiling man with long dark hair is held up in the crowd, and an ornate golden palanquin with a canopy sits at the left. A few people at the right wear orange and white garments, and a man in a grey jacket stands near the railing. The area is crowded but the sky is pale.
