I arrived well before sunrise on the banks of the sacred Ganga to observe the morning rituals. Sunrise came and went without any sign of the sun. Gradually the outline of a golden disc appeared a thumb's width above the horizon. It was sunrise India-style, as the sunlight struggled to push through the thick dusty air. A boat passed directly between myself and the sun. I under exposed to turn the boat into a sihoulette and retain detail in the golden sun, resulting in the rich colors this transparency retains today. -------------------------- Taken: 1995 Camera: Canon EOS 1 Lens: 80-200/2.8L Settings: ISO 80 Film: Kodachrome 64 Notes: Handheld
