A photograph of a procession on a paved path in warm morning light. A seated figure on a wooden plank, carried by orange-clad attendants, wears a red turban, a long grey-brown cloth and a ceremonial gold necklace, and is shown with painted white markings on the face. Beside him a young man in orange dhoti, bare-chested and wearing rudraksha mala, carries a brass tray of kalasha-like vessels with a red cloth draped over them. Two purple floral umbrellas with beaded fringe shade the group. Women in orange and white saris, and a bare-chested attendant, walk nearby. A white truck stands at the right edge.
