A young man carrying two bamboo cages filled with chickens balances them on a bamboo pole across one shoulder. He is barefoot. Behind him there is a workshop colored bright yellow with red lettering on it, which may be a tailoring shop. On the roof is a dwelling. Two children can be seen huddled over something. Groups of people walk down the street. This is the first of a series of photographs Halpern took in order to document the life of a single street corner over a period of a few minutes.
