Down at the ghats Photo

Photographer’s Note

The ghats in Varanasi on the banks of the sacred Ganges are a hive of activity every day. In the morning you can see people bathing such as this man. I particularly like the pose of this man which I captured from a early morning boat ride. This image is from a scanned photo taken in 2000.

Yes, this view point is different from others as the man is washing his clothes in the water.
I am sure you might have clicked shots of the Evening Aarti, which is so wonderful here and the whole of the place chants in harmony with the sacred mantras.
Do post those shots.
Keep posting Simon.
Did you visit Himachal Pradesh also.......particularly Shimla?
