A photograph of the Varanasi ghats along the Ganges at daytime, showing weathered stone buildings, a red and cream temple spire with domes and a clock tower, and wooden boats on the river. Several small boats are moving on the water, with a few people seated in a green boat in the foreground; a man in a white shirt sits at the oar area. Stone steps lead down to the water, with stacked firewood on the ghats and a row of pilgrims or visitors on the steps. The sky is pale and hazy.
