The central and left vehicles carry metal-framed shrine canopies with deity murtis draped in garlands, one with a yellow cloth backdrop and one with a blue backdrop, and small colourful streamers hang above. Strings of multicoloured lights line the foreground. Dark silhouettes of people stand near the vehicles, and more shrines with lights recede at the right edge.
