Wet Stone Steps Reflecting Sky Under Pagoda in beneath a pagoda roof near Sarnath, Varanasi

Wet Stone Steps Reflecting Sky Under Pagoda

by Claire Barber

Dark, polished stone steps curve beneath the sweeping eaves of a traditional pagoda roof in Sarnath. Deep shadows pool across the wet surfaces where monsoon water has left a glossy sheen. A sharp rim of cool evening light traces the curved edge of the roof tiles, separating the dark structure from the fading sky. The gray stone mirrors the pale blue and soft violet hues of the overcast horizon. Humid air hangs still over the damp masonry, showing the texture of water beading on the worn edges. The wide view shows the quiet stillness of the dry season evening, with the reflection of the sky stretching endlessly across the slick, dark steps.
