Nasik, India. 29th Aug, 2015. Naked holy men (Naga sadhus) returning to their respective Akhadas after taking Holy dip in Kushvart Kund on the Royal bathe day. The festival held every third year, is considered one of the world's largest gatherings and lasts more than a month. Despite the length of the festival, the bathers only have a few seconds to bathe in order to make time for others. © Akshay Gupta/Pacific Press/Alamy Live News
