Photographer's Note
I SHOOT IT AT GANGASAGAR MELA(FAIR).IT IS TOLD THAT MAN MAY GO TO ALL THE PILGRIMAGES AGAIN AND AGAIN, BUT A MAN CAN GET ALL THE VIRTUES OF RELIGIOUS PERFORMANCES HERE IN GANGASAGAR ONCE BY SEEING AND BATHING IN THE SACRED WATER OF THE CONFLUENCE OF THE RIVER GANGA AND THE SEA.
GANGASAGAR IS THE MOST FAMOUS PILGRIMAGE OF INDIA.PEOPLE FROM ALL THE PROVINCES OF INDIA,EVEN FROM THE CROUNTRIES ABROAD COME HERE EVERY YEAR TO HAVE A HOLY DIP IN THE SACRED WATER OF THE GANGAS AND TO OFFER OBLATION TO THE LORD KAPILA.
THE PILGRIMAGE OF GANGASAGAR IS SITUATED IN THE EXTREME SOUTHERN PART OF WEST BENGAL IN INDIA.IT IS IN THE SAGAR-ISLAND IN THE DISTRICT OF SOUTH 24 PARGANAS.IT IS ON THE SEASORE OF THE BAY OF BENGAL.IT IS THE CONFLUENCE OF THE RIVER GANGA AND THE SEA.

Hello SUBIR. An impressing and photo worth seeing. By the reduction on the substantial and the archaische elements the photo gets its value. Unusually well composes. Really completely protruding. Best regards, Wolfgang.
