This was at the Maha Kumbh Festival omn the banks of the River Ganges in Prayagraj,Northern India. This Religious Event occurs once in 144 years and I was lucky to go and witness the festival. With great difficulty and extreme low light I managed to photograph a 'Sadhu' ( an Ascetic ) blessing a pilgrim devotee on the banks of the Ganges.
