Night procession photographed from behind a dense crowd of silhouetted devotees in the foreground, one wearing a green shirt. Ahead, a richly decorated temple-style palanquin covered with garlands in red, orange and green, topped with a tiered tower, is carried or pulled through the dark. Several large umbrellas in orange, green and gold shade the procession, and a second illuminated decorated float stands at left with lamps and a tall lit standard. A figure seated in the palanquin's centre wears red and gold attire amid flower garlands. Bright floodlights and handheld lights glow against the night sky with small sparks rising above.
