Outdoor procession on a dirt path with decorated ceremonial parasols in red, yellow and blue with tasselled edges, flanked by banana leaves. Several saffron-robed devotees in orange dhotis and shawls walk in line, some carrying trays of offerings, flower garlands and tall gold-tipped staffs. A central man in an orange robe wears a rudraksha mala and holds a camera. Behind them a long line of people in white clothes walks down the path, and a white kolam floor design is drawn on the ground. Misty hills rise in the background. Several people wear saffron robes while others wear white, indicating a ritual procession.
