Gangotori
India
A hermit basks in the afternoon sun in front of his cave in the Himalaya mountains, near the pilgrim site of the source of the Ganges river. He is a sadhu, or holy man, and owns nothing beyond what you see here. He lives off of the meger offers of rice and food from passing pilgrims.
