Aerial night view of a festive procession moving down a paved path lined with palm trees, lights and a red-and-white barrier. Many participants in colourful costumes walk among bright orange and red umbrellas, red and orange flags, and decorated poles. Strings of lights glow in the trees and along the railings. Some people appear in saffron and red attire, and a few carry umbrellas. The procession appears to be a large group, with a dense cluster of participants in the centre of the frame.
