About
A man praying at the junction of two sacred rivers, the Yamuna and the Ganges in Allahabad. To morrow I'll post a portait of the woman you see coming out of the river
This is in Sangam around 7 km from Civil Lines, overlooked by the eastern ramparts of the fort, wide flood plains and muddy banks protrude towards the sacred Sangam. At the point at which the brown Ganges meets the Greenish Yamuna, pandas (priests) perch on small platforms to perform puja and assist the devout in their ritual ablutions in the shallow waters. Beaches and ghats are littered with the shorn hair of pilgrims who come to offer pind for their deceased parents.
Hey Claude, I was looking at the thumbnail of this shot and my first though was...this looks so much like a Calude Rebault shot. You have such a strong stamp on your shots i am starting to belive i would recognise them anywhere. You are doing great as usual. The diagona line you created helps in disvovering the content of the shot.
