Outdoor procession on a dirt road under trees. A seated man in orange robes and a white flower garland sits on a white-covered seat, with a man in white kneeling before him. Behind, women in colourful silk saris (orange, red, teal, green) balance decorated kalasha pots with garlands on their heads, walking in a line with hands folded in namaskar. Ornate multicoloured canopy umbrellas with tassels and blue-and-white motifs are held aloft by men in black shirts, and a man in an orange shawl stands nearby.

Outdoor procession on dry dirt ground with trees behind. A seated figure in saffron/orange robes with long dark hair and a white flower garland sits on a white-draped platform or seat. A man in white dhoti and orange shawl bends forward, apparently doing padapuja to the seated figure's feet. Around them, women in colourful saris (yellow, pink, teal, magenta) carry tall decorated kalasha-like pots with floral ornaments on their heads, flanking the seat. Men in black shirts and an orange-clad attendant stand behind, some holding long poles of ornate umbrellas (chhatra) in red, yellow and multicolour fabric. A white vehicle is visible in the background.2006-12-25December 25 20062006-12-25December 25 20062006-12-25December 25 20062006-12-25Outdoor procession on a dirt road under a clear sky. A seated figure in saffron/orange robes with a white garland and red flower garland sits on a white chair-throne, hands folded, with a white fringed umbrella held over them by a man in black. Men in black shirts with round emblems and men in white shirts stand around. In the foreground, women in orange, maroon and green saris and white beaded necklaces carry tall, brightly decorated kalasha-style pots with colourful streamers and painted motifs on their heads. The scene reads as a temple festival procession. The seated figure shows long swept-back hair, saffron robes and a garland, but the face is small and the appearance is not clear enough for a confident identification.2006-12-25December 25 20062006-12-25December 25 20062006-12-25December 25 20062006-12-25December 25 20062006-12-25Outdoor procession scene on a dusty ground.
