Carved Gourds Vendor at Amritsar Flower Auction

Bright monsoon sunlight floods a bustling market stall in Amritsar, illuminating rows of intricately carved dried gourds arranged on a wooden bench. The vendor, wearing a light cotton kurta, stands beside the display while customers examine the textured surfaces. Wet pavement reflects the harsh midday glare, and green floral arrangements from the auction sit adjacent to the carved artifacts. Raindrops rest on the glossy leaves of nearby bouquets, against the matte, earthy tones of the gourd carvings. The foreground blurs into soft greens, framing the transaction where hands reach out to touch the smooth, hollowed wood.
