Photograph on the Ganges at Varanasi showing a wooden boat with a long-haired figure in a flowing orange robe seated at the front, smiling and holding a silver trident upright, with a small camera in the hands of a person behind. A man in an orange-and-white striped long-sleeved shirt and jeans stands on the gunwale photographing with a camera, and a person in a white hooded sweatshirt crouches at the right holding a paddle. Behind them rise old ghat buildings and pale pink and yellow houses along the riverbank under a hazy sky. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears orange robes and has long swept-back hair, a trident-holding ritual pose, consistent with a sannyasi presentation.
