Outdoor procession walking along a red carpet under a white tent canopy decorated with blue fabric rolls, with exhibition stalls and red banners behind. A central figure in a saffron-orange robe and a white bead necklace is being guided by a man in a yellow-and-saffron sash. Around them, several men in deep red-brown robes with gold-striped borders, rudraksha malas and red or orange turbans walk, one raising a hand in greeting. Men in white dhotis with sandalwood or vibhuti markings, and some in yellow shawls, follow. Stalls show red a person Sangha signage, and a watermarked photo credit appears in the corner.

In the foreground, a smiling man in a dark red-orange dhoti and shawl with gold borders, a red turban, and a thick gold-beaded necklace walks forward, a red-and-gold cord visible at his waist. Behind him, several men in saffron-orange robes with gold borders and rudraksha malas follow, along with men in white dhotis and red-orange shawls, and a few women in saffron saris and a child in the background. Tie colours to owners: the lead figure wears the turban and gold necklace; others wear plain white or saffron garments. Strong appearance cues on the lead figure (red turban, gold necklace, saffron-gold attire) are consistent with a person candidate in a ceremonial procession, though the image is not conclusive.2015-07-25
