In the organizer's words:

Thorge Berger is in love - in love with India! He returns to the subcontinent again and again to experience the diversity of nature and culture. He visits bright green tea plantations and cruises through Kerala's backwaters on a houseboat, tracks down tigers in the Indian jungle and spends time with the master of an ancient martial art. But he is particularly fascinated by India's sacred places, its sadhus and ancient rites. In Mumbai, Thorge documents how gigantic statues of the elephant god Ganesha sink into the sea. During the Holi festival, he saves his cameras with great difficulty from the exuberant color attacks. During Theyyam celebrations, he witnesses living gods walking through the fire. And at the Kumbh Mela, the largest gathering of pilgrims on earth, he merges with millions of believers on the banks of the Ganges. The wonders of India - they just don't seem to end. The gifted travel photographer has captured them with a loving eye in masterful images!
