Night procession on a dusty road lit by street lamps and a warm orange haze. Two large vertical banners are carried by devotees in white dhotis with red sashes; each banner shows a portrait of a man in orange robes with raised arms, labelled in Hindi and English. Behind them an decorated elephant with painted markings carries a figure under a multicoloured umbrella, with a red-robed attendant nearby. Several white-clad men and a bald man in white stand along the route, with bystanders and stalls in the background.
