Hot spot 2

India
Culcutta

As evening light fades gradually away, the only lights come either by the cooking utensils of the side road open air "hot spots" or by the casual car light flashes.. It's the usual Indian dinner time.

More "Indian" than Calcutta will never go. And here it is. You wonder how they'll get along when you pass by.
Nice editing.

It is amazing to see how these people cook by the roadside and wit so few things... just some large pans and a basket full of something....
An excellent take on life.

another inviting scene .... the cooking facilities a bit primitive, but the cooks friendly and promising a good meal .... a great image and range of tones and results from scanning your old photo and bringing in more contrast !!!
greetings, Adele
p.s. you are reviving wonderful memories from the 80s in Jaipur for me !!!!
