India, Varanasi, Burning Ghats, 1984

India, Varanasi, Burning Ghats, 1984 - I marveled at the Burning Ghats of Varanasi. It was first time I witnessed cremation. I was forbidden by the locals to take a picture from here. They said if it was night, they would throw me off the balcony. As I went to leave they said I could take just one photo and then I could never come back. In the top of the photograph is the Ganges, the Holy River of India.
