Outdoors on a paved courtyard covered with scattered red and white firecracker paper debris, a man in an orange saffron robe lights a cracker on a long bamboo pole held by a man in white kurta and dhoti with an orange shawl. A red cloth is draped over the pole's end while a third person in white stands at the left edge. Behind them, a white-painted shrine structure with a dark kalasha-like finial rises beside tall coconut palms and shrubs with orange flowers.
