On the side of the street standing next to a shops door, the old lady holds out hand made items hoping to peddle them off to tourists. She makes no gestures, no expressions, doesn’t call out to any one in the passing crowd to grab their attention. It’s cold out. She has probably been standing there most of the day well into this night. People pass by; no one seems interested in her goods. There are so many people out tonight, and nearly as many street venders. No one takes notice of her standing in the corner. Another person walks by; they don’t give her a second look. She goes on standing there holding out her hand.
