A crowded procession photographed among many people, with large red flags in the foreground and ornate umbrellas behind them. A yellow-and-orange umbrella with white fringe and a deep maroon umbrella with gold trim are prominent. A man with a thick moustache in the centre wears an orange-brown cloth over his shoulders, and a woman in dark-rimmed glasses is partly visible at lower left. Several uniformed police officers in khaki and navy stand among the crowd, and devotees in white clothing press forward on the right. Some people raise phones to take pictures. The scene appears to be a ceremonial street procession with flag and umbrella bearers.
