A Calcutta taxi
Books and more books. Calcutta is India's literary and arts capital and there are bookstores and stalls all over the city. And they are super cheap.
A really old printing press shop.
And a cute old man in the shop. He was so excited that I took his photo.
Women hanging out on a pavement truck.
Religious items for sale outside of Kalighat Temple.

Sugar cane juice. Labor-intensive, but quite tasty.
A rickshaw puller taking a nap. In Calcutta, they have rickshaws that are literally pulled. Awful.
More rickhaw pullers taking naps.
