A man sitting at the edge of the Ganges River in Varanasi, India
In Varanasi, India, a man sits cross-legged on a rock step on the shore of the Ganges River. Behind him several containers, bowls, and coins are arranged roughly in a circle. To his right is a metal bucket. In the background, three boats travel through the water, two of them nearly empty and the third full of people.
