Outdoor street procession under a bright blue sky with palm fronds at left. Several drummers march in the foreground wearing white turbans, dark sleeveless tops with beaded necklaces and tassels, and dark wraparound garments. Each carries a large frame drum draped with a red, yellow and blue fringed cloth, some striking the drumheads with sticks. Onlookers stand along the roadside and a cyclist rides at right. Roughly a dozen or more people are visible, with several partly cut off by the frame.
