Sometimes

...you just have to be happy with what you have.
A two sided comment, referring to this venerable Sadhu,
sitting on the ghats of the Ganges, but also referring to myself.

This was one of those "On my God, I gotta get a picture of this guy"
moments. Even though I couldn't "move" him, get him with a better background,
or position him in better light, I still had to get what I could get.
Note: for those that have never tried to move an older Sadhu from his position
of meditation, while surrounded by his "followers" or students, well, good luck.
