Aerial view of a dense street procession in an Indian town, with a large crowd of people in white and orange clothing following a decorated palanquin-style cart. Many red flags and multicolored umbrellas, in yellow, blue, green, pink and red, are carried above the crowd, and uniformed police officers line the route. Bunting strings and colourful decorations hang between buildings and trees, and a temple-like structure with a dome stands at the right. Several men in orange robes walk near the front. The scene appears to be a festival procession, though no specific event is confirmed.
