I was in Bangalore for a week (also known as the IT hub of India) and went to the local market called Jayanagar. Pavements of such markets are full of vendors selling their stuff. This heap of soft toys were also there.
I changed the angle of the camera to get the motorbikes surrounding the soft toys. They do seem to be a bit incongruous.
Finally, this was the young seller of the toys, he was with his family and told us it is because of the summer vacations he is helping his family to sell the toys, otherwise he goes to school.

how ironic that the boy who should be playing with toys is selling them…
tough!
That’s a bit sad.
most kids love stuffed toys–i even know some adults who collect this stuff! i’ve seen a lot of plush toys in the local market and they’re from China.
Thank you for sharing your world and im glad you’re enjoying my kind of photography.

Glad you got your post up, Mridula! And a very interesting one it is. The boy looks so serious, I would love to see him smile. Terrific captures! Have a wonderful week! Enjoy!
