A photograph of a procession on a dirt road beside a sparse tree line and utility poles. A central figure in a long orange-saffron robe with an orange-gold garland walks under a multicoloured canopy umbrella held aloft on a pole. Around them, men in white dhotis and white kurtas wear orange shawls and rudraksha mala necklaces; one man on the left carries a tall staff. A man in a maroon top and orange shawl walks at left, and women in white saris with pink borders follow at right. Some people carry small items. Dry red earth and a clear overcast sky complete the scene.
