A photograph of a wooden ferry boat on a wide, brownish river at the Triveni Sangam confluence in Allahabad. Several people sit or stand inside the boat, some in light and dark clothing, while a few more sit on the bow. Murky water surrounds the boat, with scattered floating debris and marigold-like flower petals on the surface. A low, hazy shoreline with trees and buildings lies in the background under a pale sky.
