A dense crowd of devotees surrounds a procession outdoors, with ornate painted parasols in red, yellow and green with gold fringe overhead. Near the centre, a figure in orange robes and a rudraksha mala stands beside a man in orange and a long-haired figure in white, while a large golden trident is carried aloft. Many people in white shirts and dhotis fill the foreground and background, with palm trees and a thatched structure behind. Crowds are too dense to count precisely.
