Outdoor procession under palm trees with two large red and yellow ornate umbrellas overhead. A central man in saffron-orange robes, a white and red flower garland and a gold necklace raises both hands above his head, smiling. He has long dark hair and a gold headpiece, with a bare upper body draped in orange cloth. Two attendants in saffron robes carry tall golden trident staffs (trishula) beside him. Around them, devotees in white and cream clothing, a woman in a white sari with a shawl, and children crowd the path, with thatched huts behind. The scene reads as a ceremonial procession.
