This sadhu had a powerful space about him, quite dramatic and intense. Varanasi is in the background. My aim was to get a vintage look for this. I have studied and collected 1870-1920 photographs of India, and they have a special, ethereal quality about them. Please let me know if you think I succeeded.

As an aside, I have recently started a new Facebook group: Best Images of Indian Sadhus & Babas
This group is meant to highlight the best or most interesting images of sadhus. The link is found here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1085745876614582
Please join if you feel so inclined. I post historical pictures as well.
