A dense outdoor procession crowded with devotees under bright sunlight. Many red flags and colourful ceremonial umbrellas in red, blue, yellow and green, edged with gold trim and sequins, fill the frame. In the centre, a large life-size cutout portrait printed in colour shows a figure in a pink turban and pink garment wearing a garland of red and white flowers, carried upright by a devotee. Around it, people in white saris and saffron-coloured shawls walk alongside, one woman with sunglasses smiling at the camera. A yellow metal barricade railing runs along the right edge, with spectators pressing against it.
