Night photograph of a procession on a dirt path lit by a bright torch or lamp at the centre. A figure in a dark orange-brown robe with a long white and red flower garland walks at the centre, a decorated umbrella held above him. Dark silhouetted crowds line both sides, including people in white dhotis and saffron-coloured wraps. A glowing orange light source sits in the background, and the figure casts a long shadow toward the camera.
