Outdoor street procession in bright daylight between whitewashed walls. A central figure in a rust-red turban, long brown-saffron robe and a large garland of white and red flowers walks under a bright orange umbrella held aloft by a man in white. Behind him, women in gold-bordered saris carry brass trays with flowers and offerings. Crowds of devotees surround the procession; men in white shirts and white dhotis, some wearing rudraksha and orange-beaded malas, bend forward and reach toward the central figure. A man on the right in a white t-shirt wears rudraksha malas and gestures with an outstretched hand. Buildings and a bus are visible in the background.
