A wide daytime view of a broad, muddy river flowing through a flat landscape, with green trees and grassy embankments along both banks. On the left bank, a crowd of people dressed in orange and red walks along a road lined with stalls, tents and small red-and-white flags, with a tanker truck at the edge. A lone figure stands at the water's edge near a low red brick wall on the left, and floral offerings and cloth float near a metal pole in the water. A bridge with several arches spans the river in the distance under a hazy sky.

On the left bank, a long line of people in orange and saffron clothing, some carrying red and orange flags, walks along the path beside the water, passing utility poles and tall trees. Several small boats sit on the river near a distant bridge, and the right bank has green trees, a few buildings and a stepped concrete ghat. The scene is an outdoor riverside gathering with a procession moving along the bank.2014-07-21July 21 20142014-07-21July 21 20142014-07-21Outdoor photo of a wide, muddy river at Haridwar with a stone ghat of steps along the left bank.
