This is on the banks of River Ganga in Benaras. It forms an arrowhead and there numerous ghats on this bank.Time
Late afternoon about 4pm in January winter monthLighting
Natural light at the magic hour in the afternoon is one of my all time favourites.Equipment
Niton D5300 with a basic lensInspiration

Niton D5300, basic lens and 50mm prime lens with 3 Micro Sd cards for back up.Feedback
