Outdoor procession on dry, sandy ground under large yellow canopies with multicoloured fringed edges, carried by men in white. A central figure in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban, wearing a long white and multicoloured flower garland and a rudraksha mala, walks with palms pressed together in greeting and smiles. Beside him an older bearded man in orange cloth and white garlands walks. Around them men and boys in white shirts and dhotis, one holding a plate, and a small girl in a floral dress carrying a flower tray. Petals litter the ground; a yellow flag and green flag stand in the background under trees. Consistent with a procession or greeting during a ceremony, with the central figure matching cues for a person.
