A photograph on a river at Varanasi showing two young men in the foreground pushing and steadying a weathered wooden riverboat with blue and white diagonal stripes and peeling red paint. Behind them, a white and blue passenger boat with a red-trimmed cabin and railing carries a few people, including a man in white clothing and a man in saffron robes standing near a speaker stand. A pale hazy sky and a distant red-girdered bridge frame the scene.

Hazy morning view of the Ganges at Varanasi with many small wooden boats moored along the water. In the foreground, a long flat-topped wooden boat with a blue canopy frame sits at a ghat, and a man in light clothing stands at its bow holding a long bamboo pole. Further out, two people sit in a small blue boat, and several people bathe or stand in the shallow water near the boats. Distant riverfront buildings fade into the mist.

Early-morning photograph of wooden boats moored at a riverside ghat on the Ganga in Varanasi, with a hazy pale sky. A white covered boat with a railed roof and a row of blue circular emblems stands in the middle distance, and a red pennant flies from a tall mast at right. At the far right, several people in white clothing stand on a dark boat at the water's edge. The foreground shows weathered blue and yellow-trimmed hulls and a coiled rope. The water is calm and the shoreline faint.

Photograph of a boat outing on a hazy river. On the left, a weathered wooden boat with two men seated on orange-brown plastic chairs, one standing and talking on a phone beside a small white cabin. On the right, a second boat carries a group of devotees in white clothes and saffron-orange flags, some wearing red and white, while a woman in a light patterned dress stands at the stern photographing. Calm grey water and a misty skyline stretch behind them. No individual can be confidently identified as a person from appearance, so no candidate is marked.

A large crowd of devotees gathers on a sandy Ganges riverbank, many dressed in white kurtas and saffron-orange or red shawls and sashes. Several people stand and sit along the bank, and a blue-and-white boat is moored at the water's edge with people on its deck. On the boat, a man in white raises an arm toward the crowd, and a person in white with a red sash stands nearby. Bamboo poles and a tall flagpole rise above the boat, with a steel arch bridge and temple structures in the background under a hazy sky.

Several people sit in boats on the right, and a man stands waist-deep in the river near the edge. Distant ghat buildings appear faintly along the far shore under a pale sky.
