About the Image(s)
Just walking on the street of Kolkata is an experience! Life is lived on the streets. Here's a tailor who is ironing in his shop open to the street. You see all kinds of work. It's a fascinating place.

That's a good way to advertise your work: in full view of the street. In addition to the man completing his task, there is a woman and 2 children off to the left. Nice scene with views of the people. Plus, I like the colors and patterns of the cloth.   Posted: 08/10/2025 23:48:45
I like this composition very much. The man is prominently in the foreground, the woman is there to complete the picture but is not in the light and further back. The cloth forms a diagonal that goes across the image. The lighting on the man makes him stand out.   Posted: 08/13/2025 20:10:10
