22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Evening Solitude at the Tea Shop
While wandering through the narrow lanes of North Kolkata in the evening, I stumbled upon this quaint tea shop. The shop owner, seated on a wooden bench amidst jars and utensils, was deeply engrossed in a TV show, illuminated by a single light bulb. The warm glow and the rustic setting exude a sense of quiet intimacy, contrasting with the bustling energy typically associated with the city. This moment captures a slice of everyday life—an intimate scene of a solitary moment in an otherwise busy world.
