Night photograph on a grassy open field with trees and a dim building in the background. On the left, a man in white unstitched ritual clothing holds a bright glowing light or sparkler in his outstretched hand. On the right, a man in a dark green shirt and light trousers holds a bundle of red firecracker-like strings and watches a bright burst of light and smoke on the ground ahead. Two people are visible, with no clear identification of a specific individual; the scene suggests a celebratory fireworks or lamp-lighting moment.
