Looking upward at a tall copper-clad ceremonial pole topped with an orange cloth banner, with a carved finial at its tip. White jasmine garlands and green leaves wrap its base, and a palm tree stands beside it against a clear blue sky. Two people in the lower right hold ropes that guide the pole, one in a maroon garment with white garland and the other in white clothing. A small drone hovers in the sky near the banner.

Low-angle photo of a tall copper-clad ceremonial pole or chariot mast, banded with copper rings and topped with a carved finial and a small red flag. Its base is wrapped in green leaves, feathery grass and white jasmine garlands with red flowers. Against a clear blue sky, thin ropes run upward from the mast, and a small white drone hovers near the top. At the lower right, a person in a white dhoti and a white cloth draped over one shoulder holds a rope and stands beside a wooden cart or chariot, with a coconut palm behind.
