Vertical composition, an Indian chai stall scene at a busy street corner during golden hour. A small wooden cart with a corrugated tin roof, festooned with marigold garlands in bright orange and yellow. A chai wallah with a thick black mustache (wearing a white kurta with sleeves pushed up and a faded saffron-orange cotton towel over one shoulder) pours steaming chai in a dramatic long pour from a brass pot into small clay kullad cups lined up on the counter. A young college student with dark skin and round glasses (wearing a sky-blue kurta and carrying a brown canvas backpack full of books) reaches for a cup. Steam rises dramatically catching the golden backlight. Behind the stall, a yellow auto-rickshaw is parked, a bicycle loaded with newspapers leans against a wall painted with a faded Bollywood movie poster in red and blue. A string of small colorful triangular flags flutters above. Pigeons peck at the dusty ground. The color palette is dominated by warm saffron-orange, golden light, bright marigold yellow, white, and dusty brown, accented with sky-blue, brass gold, faded red and blue poster, and deep brown skin tones. --ar 9:16 --sref ••••• --niji 7
