An outdoor ritual courtyard under a corrugated metal shelter, with a clay pot hanging from a rope between two red metal posts. Devotees in saffron and orange robes, some with rudraksha beads, stand beside large blue plastic drums while a woman in a grey sari stands at the centre holding a pot. Others wear white dhotis and garlands. A large crowd watches from behind, and the ground is wet with coloured water. Palm trees and a power pole are visible in the background.
