Photo taken through a vehicle windscreen during a street procession in traffic. A white van-style vehicle with an enclosed back and open rear door carries a deity-themed shrine decoration and a large side panel showing a golden-robed image of a deity with a crown. Two men sit on the open rear step: one in a white shirt and light trousers, the other in an orange-brown top with an orange head cloth. A man in a dark shirt stands beside a yellow-and-blue painted lorry on the left, and a white-shirted older man stands in the foreground by a white vehicle. Strings of dried flower garlands hang in the foreground, and a telecom tower and buildings appear in the background.
