Saddhu, Varanasi, India, 2008

Saddhus are Hindu holy men – renouncers who have left behind all material and sexual attachments and live in caves, forests and temples all over India. This one was standing on a ghat along the Ganges. The softly focused Indians in the background go about their lives in this holy city without giving him a second look. He seems oblivious to everything. His long beard, golden costume, and face paint seem theatrical, yet in this case all must have religious significance.
