Outdoor temple procession on a paved courtyard with palm trees behind. A bearded man in a saffron-orange robe and a white-and-orange flower garland, with a rudraksha mala and a white-marked forehead, stands in front of a tall golden staff topped by a canopy. Beside him, a bare-chested attendant with white body markings raises the golden staff, and another attendant in an orange garment carries a ceremonial golden cloth bundle. Behind them, a red and gold temple structure, a stone kalasha-like pillar with garlands, and spectators, including a man in a white dhoti and a man with a backpack, watch the procession.
