A procession on a dirt path between blue tarpaulin walls and wooden poles, with a red and gold canopy on a pole in the background. A central figure in an orange-red robe wears a long flower garland of white and orange blossoms and has long dark hair; the cues are the saffron robe, garland and long hair, so this is. Around him are several men in white dhotis with yellow borders and white upper cloths, some bald-headed, and a woman in a white sari with yellow border walking at right. A man in front wears a rudraksha mala. Plastic chairs are stacked at left under a white canopy.
