Skywatch Friday - Sun rise over Ganges, Benaras

When you visit Benaras or Varanasi in India, don't miss the sunrise cruise over Ganges river. It is spiritually uplifting and beautiful.  

We were there in 2011 during our long road trip from Bangalore. This shot was taken when the sun was coming up reluctantly over the horizon as we set sail. It was a wonderful experience.
