Photographing life along the Ganges became easier as the days progressed, but in my mind’s eye, the city was constantly pulsing, always moving. Colors swirled, people melded together.

Read MoreI am a curious and adventurous traveler and photographer looking to share my stories and images from around the globe.
At it's simplest, a photograph captures a moment in time. The best images, however, do much more than that: they are thought-provoking, emotions-stirring stories.
