A dense crowd of devotees moves along a street past a pale green two-storey building under a clear blue sky. Many people wear white, cream and saffron-orange clothes; a woman in a purple sari and a woman in a pink-and-red top with a blue bag stand at the centre. Strands of yellow marigold garlands and bunting hang across the building, and several large umbrellas with red, orange and blue panels are raised above a procession. Overhead utility wires and a transformer are visible at the left. Several figures in orange robes appear in the procession, but no individual can be confidently identified from this image.
