Night procession on a wide open ground at a festival, with a large crowd of devotees walking in a long column across the sand. Most wear white dhotis, kurtas and sarees, with some women in orange, pink, purple and blue saris. Strings of red and multicoloured lights line the left edge, and a brightly lit stage with colourful illuminated panels stands in the distance under a dark sky. The crowd is dense and mostly in motion, carrying nothing clearly identifiable.
