I spent about ten minutes photographing activity at this corner, set deep in the winding streets leading to the city’s principal shrine, the Vishwanth Temple. This motorcyclist and his passenger pulled up when they saw my camera and waited as I photographed them. There were no smiles -- I made this image and they continued on their journey. A policeman is lighting up a cigarette at the counter of a small shop at right. Many of the shops in the area were still shuttered -- I made this image early in the morning, using a wideangle lens to stretch the scene.
