A photograph of the Ganges river at dawn or dusk near Varanasi, with a pale pink and orange sunrise glow low on the horizon over a hazy sky. Rippled water reflects the warm light in the foreground. On the right, a small wooden boat with a raised flag pole carries three or four silhouetted people in light clothing, and a distant boat sits on the far water. A faint bird flies in the sky. Hazy riverbank silhouettes line the distant shore.
