A procession walks across a paved courtyard beneath a shelter with red-painted posts and palm trees behind.

Beside him a bare-chested man in orange cloth carries a tray with a red and white floral offering and a garland. A woman in orange sari carries a wooden tray at left. Two bare-chested men in white dhotis with pink borders and rudraksha malas walk in front, and a man in orange and white with a rudraksha mala stands at right.
