A night-time outdoor festival scene at a temple-style complex with white tented pavilions, strings of coloured fairy lights along a white wall, and orange-lit buildings. A large crowd of devotees walks and stands along green-carpeted pathways. Women wear saris in green, pink, blue and red, many with headscarves, while men wear shirts and trousers. A woman in a green sari in the foreground leads a group, and a metal table with items stands among the walkers. No individual figure with clear, distinctive a person cues is identifiable, so no in-person candidate is claimed.
