A night procession moves through a hazy, orange-lit street at a Kumbh Mela camp, with many people carrying saffron-orange flags bearing a dove-like emblem. Men in winter jackets, turbans and white shawls walk beside women in headscarves and colourful saris, with street lamps glowing overhead and tents and banners behind them. No individual leader can be picked out with confidence, so no a person candidate is identified in this crowd. The scene shows devotees on a cold winter evening walking in a large group.
