You must have been on morning walks numerous times. However, stepping into the tiny lanes of Chandni Chowk is a unique feeling!
I always adore walking in those not-so-crowded lanes in the morning.

From where does it begun?
On a Saturday night, I asked some of my friends who regularly come on a photo walk.
They agreed to join me in the morning. Precisely, I’ve planned to meet at exactly 7 a.m.
Therefore, I woke up at 6a.m, got ready, and reached the metro station at 6:30 a.m. However, I missed a metro by a few seconds. The next would come after 8 mins. That would probably make me a little late.
Afterward, I reached the interchange metro station, Rajiv Chowk. However, the metro took 15 mins to arrive. It felt like an hour of waiting time. That’s a rare metro interval time.
I reached the meeting spot 20 minutes late.
But I was geared up for an exciting photo walk.
Sooner, the other member also joined.
Starting the Photo-Walk
I kept walking until I reached the Nai Sarak. From there, I went to the lanes and started finding captivating frames.
Truthfully, I love to stroll the narrow lanes because the beam of light falling in those lanes during earlier hours is impactful!
I walked and came across monkeys sitting in a shed.


Ultimately, they seemed to plan to steal the vegetables from the lady sitting beneath the shed.



While a few monkeys kept an eye on the lady, a monkey from the other side came down, picked the vegetable polythene, and tried running away. Until the lady saw, picked up a broom, and pretended to throw it on him.
He left the bag and went into the shed.
Street after street, I captured amazing moments.

Therefore, I asked them and sat there for some time to capture the priceless moments. Their enthusiasm is truly a fire within.
Hence, I captured a photo series, which I had presented below.
