A photograph of a procession descending stone steps beside a reflective water tank, with a red-and-ochre temple structure behind. In the centre, a man with swept-back dark hair, a red dhoti and shawl, a long rudraksha mala and a large gold ceremonial pendant walks with downcast eyes; his forehead bears white tilak markings. Beside him, a shaved-headed man in an orange-and-gold dhoti wears a beaded necklace and bangles. Behind them, a line of men in orange and saffron robes with rudraksha malas and white forehead markings walks in step. At right, a drummer in an orange garment and rudraksha mala plays a drum, and a second drum rests near the steps.
