Outdoor photo of a crowd gathered under a canopy during a procession. A long-haired person in saffron-orange robes with a dark rudraksha mala and a gold necklace smiles while receiving a garland of white, yellow and red flowers from a bare-chested priest with a sacred thread in the foreground. Around them, men and women in white and orange clothing stand close, some holding the ornate red, yellow and blue-patterned poles of the canopy. Beige buildings and parked vehicles appear in the background.
