Night photograph of a illuminated temple-chariot ratha in a courtyard. A multi-tiered tower decorated with green, yellow and red lights stands on a vehicle, with a deity murti visible in its lit central niche. A dark jeep-like tractor sits in front, and several people stand in the foreground, silhouetted in dark clothes. On the right, a pink and a yellow umbrella are held up over a palanquin, and a woman in a red sari stands at left. Trees frame the scene against a black sky.
