A dusk procession on an open ground lined with palm trees and strings of lights. At the centre a man in an orange garment with a white flower garland and a gold headband stands under a multicoloured fringed parasol, hands folded in greeting. Around him men in white with orange shawls hold silver staffs and tridents, and orange flags fly behind. A crowd of young people in white and yellow clothing presses close, many clapping, and a person at right holds up a camera.
