Evening procession at dusk: a deity murti is carried on a decorated ratha-style palanquin, its golden arched canopy wreathed in yellow and red marigold garlands. Two large silver-and-gold umbrellas with red fringe and ornate red-and-gold emblems stand on tall poles above it. Street lamps and a blue-lit sky frame the scene, with a few dark silhouettes of onlookers and speakers at the bottom edge. No identifiable person is clearly shown in the frame.
