Maheshwar, India

Holy Man

Holy Man

For the Hindus in India, rivers are sacred. They are believed to have cleansing powers, not only physically, but spiritually. I spotted the man in the photograph from some distance. On one level, I wanted to capture the act of the man sipping water from the river, cupping it in his hand. On another level, I wanted to create an image that was serene and timeless while at the same time, visually dramatic.*
