Photograph of the Varanasi riverfront on the Ganges, taken from the water. Ochre and white multi-storey buildings line the ghats, with a large domed red sandstone mosque with minarets on the upper bank. Small boats are moored at the steps, and the river surface is dark with gentle ripples under a pale blue sky. No people are visible in the scene.
