Welcome to Martin Gandar Photography
I set up the camera on a tripod and waited a long time for this moment. I had to time the shutter to release at exactly te split second that the fisherman was properly framed. I didn't want to drop quality by using a burst mode.
This holiest of shrines is filled with candles and is hot and slippery with wax. Hand holding was the only option and it required a balance between choosing the right film in this case Fuji Professional 200 ASA shutter speed and aperture to get this right, and of course a steady hand.
A stupendous view of a range of some of the highest mountains on the planet, all these were well over 5,000 meters and the high pass offered a great view.
It was a privadege to watch the ceremony of immersion on our long trip down the ganges
