Reflections in grace and dignity

This image was shot on the bank of river Ganga at Scindia ghat in Varanasi (Benaras).

 

At dusk I often meet seniors nearby the holy waters of the oldest living city in the world, I try to pierce their souls with my camera but I can hardly find anything as they are wrapped with their reflections.

 

Sometimes they look at the holy waters, just like this man and I come close.

Then I can feel their breath on their lives and in a way I can say that it gives power to my life.

 

I understood that this source of power is to see those elders aging in grace and dignity.
