I took this photograph after being randomly ushered into a small village in downtown Varanasi. The kids were very excited that I'd brought my camera, and as I snapped away, the excitement grew when I was able to show them their photos on the back of the camera.

This shot was taken where they kept their pigs, which was also used by some of the villagers as a gym. All the guys tried to demonstrate their prowess for the camera.

very powerful image
I like the burning around the edges, it leads your eye to the focal point of the image
