I took these shots in Almora market on a rainy day, sheltered beneath a vegetable vendor’s stall to keep myself and my camera dry. From that spot, I watched the rhythm of the street: footsteps splashing, people walking under shared umbrellas, and some others, like me, taking a pause beneath the roofs to escape the rain. The vendor, unbothered, scrolled casually through Instagram reels as he waited for customers.
