Greetings from India 9

Hello everybody!

On March 10th at about 8am, I and Keef Charles found a classic 1940s yellow Kolkata cab in our street, that took us to the airport.
It was quicker than we thought, so we had some waiting time before our flight to Varanasi. I made good use of the time and did some photo editing.

The flight was an hour and a half, so we had time for a late afternoon and evening of shooting along the famous ghats after checking in at the hotel.
Varanasi is very beautiful, especially along those ghats on the banks of the river Ganges. But we quickly discovered an annoying side to this city. Its beauty has made it a major tourist attraction with all the hustlers, the sellers of boat rides, souvenirs, snacks, you name it. And it's absolutely packed with tourists.
Some photos could be had, but patience was required to get a clean shot. I hope you like what I got on this first day in Varanasi!

Take care guys!
