Two boys in matching saffron-orange t-shirts walk along a muddy riverbank carrying decorated kanwar-style wooden pole frames on their shoulders. The frames are hung with red cloth pouches, tinsel, paper flowers, plastic blooms, feathers and small framed devotional pictures. The boy on the left wears a red shawl over his shoulder and orange shorts; the boy on the right wears an orange t-shirt printed with a deity image and ankle bells. Behind them a swollen grey river flows past a brick embankment and green trees, with a red flag fluttering on one pole. Two people in the background are partially visible.
