Night procession photographed in near darkness, with a large illuminated deity murti of a multi-armed goddess mounted on a decorated float at the centre. The murti has many raised arms holding weapons and a fierce face with a red tongue and crown-like headdress. Beside it, a figure in saffron-orange robes stands on the float holding a long staff or rod, with several other people in orange and white clothing around them. Many umbrellas in purple, orange, blue and green, some with fringed edges, shelter the crowd below. Dense dark crowd fills the foreground, partly lit by the spotlight on the float.
