In the mornings when the footpaths are usurped by fish sellers.

Sketch of a blue and yellow privately-owned bus that ply on the roads of Calcutta (Kolkata). During the office hours, passengers may barely get a foothold and some of them just cling to the vehicle somehow to arrive at their destinations.

Another crowded bus stop scene. The translator, a slow mover, is behind everyone else. He fails to secure a foothold and misses the bus!

I have been buying a green coconut for my 82-year-old mother every morning while returning from my morning walk. Here’s an impression.

Yet another street scene…

One of oldest markets of Kolkata, Maniktala Bazar, is easily identified by its clock tower. No one, however, is sure about when the tower was built. It will remain an important childhood landmark for me. My impression of the clock tower in pen and pencil and in water colour….

Another view….
