A wide daytime photograph of the Ganges river at Rishikesh, with green forested mountains rising on both sides under a pale cloudy sky. A pink paved riverside promenade runs across the lower foreground, where several people walk and sit near scattered grey boulders. In the water, a group of people bathe and wade in the shallow current, and a small blue inflatable boat floats near the centre. On the left bank a suspension bridge spans the river toward a town, and on the right a long pink multi-storey building with a tall clock tower stands along the shore. An orange-robed sadhu or monk stands on the promenade near a blue mat, while a brown dog roams the left edge.
