Varanasi is a clash of contrasts. Life and death, beauty and ugliness can often be seen at the same moment.
While absorbing the images of the river Ganga and the bodies being burnt continuously, while people were washing themselves near the 'ghat' in the same water where ashes were being dedicated to the holy water, I saw an old man in a white dress overlooking the river. I thought the shot was perfect and decided to quickly take the picture, knowing that it is stricly forbidden to take pictures of the ceremonies. Unfortunately my action did not go unnoticed.
