Hi Animesh. I like the pastel colors and the strong shadows. The harsh light is really blowing out the wall, though.

What a shiny, vibrant picture, sundrenched too with these deep shadows. Mexico has brought out the sun in you, my friend (remember your SLovakian odyssey?
Excellent work again with the peerless Summicron,
Francis

An all too familiar scene to all who passes by Rajabazar, Tobin Road or Esplanade in the morning ... The deep sense of frustration and of despair descends as morning turns to noon ... and we search for the roots of terrorism and extremism ... what hypocrites we are ...
The colours, the light, the blue wall, the dark cobblestones, all together have created - to use a cliche - a slice of life. We often forget that cliches are all very true ..

I really like the blown out wall. the colors are so hyper-realistic. It matches many of your other shots from this mexico journey.

good composition and subject matter too.
