Captured in 2017 in the sacred town of Varanasi, India, this photograph poignantly juxtaposes the vibrancy of life with the solemnity of death. A young child, dressed in a bright yellow dress with intricate floral patterns, runs playfully on the weathered stone ground. Her carefree spirit is evident as she chases a fluttering leaf, her movements full of joy and innocence. To the left of the photographer lies the holy river Ganges, and nearby, the cremation grounds where the dead are honored. This image beautifully encapsulates the essence of Varanasi, a place where life and death coexist in profound harmony.
