Night procession at a temple festival, with a large colorful deity murti of a multi-armed goddess on a wooden cart. Several bare-chested young men in orange and maroon dhotis, some wearing rudraksha malas, walk beside and pull the cart while raising hands toward the image. An orange umbrella with white lace trim is held over the murti by a man in an orange cloth. Other devotees and onlookers stand in the dark background, and a red vehicle is visible at right. The deity has a red and white halo and many hands holding objects.
