Location
Picture was taken in Varanasi while doing a boat ride in the GangesTime
It was taken at sunset before watching The Aarti ceremony I went to see the crematorium and there was this boy crossing the river and trying to balancing himselfLighting
It was sunset but a storm was coming so the light was blue instead of orange as it was supposed to be at that time of the day which give the scene a very different viewEquipment
This was taken with my Canon 750D and the 25-105mm lensInspiration
The whole Varanasi banks are magical and ethereal and this scene shows the perfect image of the balance between life and death that is celebrated daily at the river banksEditing
The post-processing was basically to bring up the colors in the photo and making it more clearIn my camera bag
Normally my Canon and my favorite lens that includes the 24-105mm, the 50mm and the 70-200mm. Also have always with me my phoneFeedback
Explore Varanasi and take time to watch the daily life there. You’ll be able to find unique and very peculiar moments to shoot
