A photograph of a procession under a covered hall with a metal roof and hanging decorations. At the centre, a bearded man in a maroon turban and maroon dhoti-style garment wears a heavy gold necklace, a red and white flower garland and a large rudraksha-style mala, walking beneath a tall green and multicoloured fringed ceremonial umbrella. Behind him, attendants in orange and cream robes carry a parasol and a staff, a shaved-headed man in orange robes walks at right, and a cameraman in white stands at left. Several children in orange and cream stand at the side. A framed poster on the wall shows a robed figure holding a trident. The procession looks like a ceremonial walk for a ritual or festival.
