A glimpse of Varanasi

in #photography7 years ago

Last year on November after many tries and 'buts', finally I went to Kashi for a few days trip with my friends. Varanasi has been quenching the thirst for spiritual quests of many travelers for many many years. But, for many professionals along with photography aficionados the place has been proved to be soothing for the camera in many angles. The sunlight, the ghats, the heritage buildings, the narrow gullys (narrow roads, really narrow) and many other parts of Varanasi may create something magical.
With this post I just want to share some of the pictures I took while I was there.
The view from the roof of our awesome hotel,

Here, God stays in each corner of road,

This is the famous "anjali", where they prey for the Goddess river Ganga

This is, while we were roaming through the ghats, my friend Tamal,

He has tremendous amount of love for animals, this is near Munshi Ghat, check out the #graffiti

See the famous "gully", this one has one of many the iconic cows of Kashi and world famous spitting mark of "varanasi pan" on the wall,

The night is peace full,

This is to show the hotel we stayed, the pinkish/red building in the middle beside the #mural of Ganesh. Can you imagine the view from the roof?

This last one when we were feeding the birds in Ganga ,

iPhone?? Nice job! That last photo is amazing, I found your work through @photo-trail's DPS so shout out to him for bringing it all together. But man, you're killin' it. Followed! Can't wait to see more! & I hope you get your dslr soon, although it looks like you'll do just fine with an iPhone camera haha

Great shots coming out of an iPhone, this again proves it's the photographers POV not the camera that matters. Keep up the good work! cheers.

Thank you for the support, cheers.
