Holy Series - Benaras

From the 'Holy' series. Inspired during an early morning at the Ganga in Varanasi. This work attempts to capture the meditative stillness at the ghat. Though surrounded with bathers and others, performing early morning rituals, with the sound of temple bells in the background, the subject sits alone; introspective, silent and an island unto himself

Holy Series - Leh 

From the “Holy” series. Inspired during a cold misty morning at Leh. This work attempts to capture the austere, single minded, devotion of the monk. The early morning air is heavy with the smell of incense and the drone of low chanting notes. The cold is biting, yet the subject is in full control of his physical discomfort, obviously owing to a superior mental strength.
