Night procession on a paved path lined with trees, with a lit ornate temple gopuram glowing in the background. At the centre, a man in a pink-red turban and pink-red garland sits cross-legged on a wooden palanquin carried on the shoulders of two men in white dhoti and orange shawls. Ahead, a man in orange robes and a white dhoti holds a long staff and a green leafy offering. A woman in a pink saree holds a yellow-and-red parasol at right, and a row of colourful parasols, including a rainbow-striped one, rises above the procession. Several people in orange, white and pink follow behind. The scene is a ratha-style palanquin procession with ceremonial umbrellas and a dhoti-clad attendant.
