Shoe shine service

Early morning in Mumbai main train station, trains were coming and going and peoples were moving fast on the shiny platform, rushing to get in time at work. Two shoemakers were the only ones sitting, but moving fast their hands to make the best look of their clients' shoes. I liked by the contrast between the shiny shoes in the morning light and the shoemaker's bare feet.
