A photograph of the Varanasi ghats on the Ganga river at golden hour. Weathered multi-storey buildings and red temple spires with domes line the stone steps leading down to the water. Several wooden boats are moored along the bank, including a yellow boat and a red boat with 'airtel' printed on its side. Two or three men sit in the red boat rowing, and a few small figures are visible on the steps. Oars rest on the water in the foreground, and reflections of the buildings shimmer on the river surface.
