A dense crowd fills a riverbank ghat in bright daylight, many people wearing saffron, red and white clothing with garlands and beaded necklaces. In the foreground a man in a white dhoti stands near a brass tray with offerings and flower garlands, while a woman in a red sari and gold jewellery is among the devotees. Orange and red flags and a yellow umbrella mark the area, and people wade into the water as boats and fountains spray on the lake beyond the temple steps.
