Varanasi is said to be the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world. A site of pilgrimage for thousands of years. It is believed by Hindus that bathing in the river Ganges here results in the remission of sin and facilitates the attainment of salvation.

Whether you believe this or not the Ganges guards her mystery perfectly. She left me spell-bound years ago. On her banks, sunrise and sunset are such remarkable 'happenings'. Those magical hours of golden filtered light have the ability to touch so deeply.

The mysterious twilight saturated with the dying perfume of the garland, fuses perfectly with devotional chanting and the heavy sigh of water lapping against her banks. Probing into the enigma of this life’s incarnation. These moments are digestive.
