Outdoors on excavated red earth, a line of devotees in white dhotis and white shirts passes small plates and offerings hand to hand across a trench. Coconut palms and shrubs fill the background, and several women in sarees stand further back. Plastic jerrycans and a dark bag lie on the mound in the foreground. No a person candidate is clearly visible; the figures are volunteers and devotees engaged in a group ritual task.
