A street in a small Indian town with a bicycle loaded with a large bundle of green leafy stalks tied to its rear rack. A person in a plain white shirt with dark, untidy hair rides the bicycle away from the camera down the middle of the road. To the left, an older man in a white dhoti and sandals walks along the roadside, and another man in dark trousers walks beside him. Behind them a gopuram tower of a temple rises above low buildings. On the right stands a bright orange and yellow shopfront with a shuttered door, a signboard reading Sri Aruna Tiles & Ceramics, and a red sign reading Sharavana Kadarpavan. A woman in an orange sari and other pedestrians and cows are scattered along the street, and utility poles and overhead wires cross the sky.
