Action on the edge

As the fishing boat docks in at the Sassoon docks, the traders throng to bid and get the best deals. The dock is narrow, hence there is a real chance of falling off the docks for a newbie.

Focussed

Everybody on the Worli pier is so focussed on something that must be real attention grabbing in the fishing boat.

Sticks and stones

Possibly playing some game devised by the child in Worli fishermen's village.
