The scene

A crumbling hillside market street in a Chilean port city at dawn, wooden stalls draped with canvas loaded with tomatoes, corncobs and crates of greens, one distant anonymous vendor arranging vegetables in the middle distance. Low golden sunlight rakes in from the left, throwing long shadows across worn cobblestones slick with overnight damp; faded pastel shutters, rusted tin roofs and tangled overhead cables above. Palette of terracotta, sea-green, bleached cream and rust. Rough-hewn wood, damp stone, sagging canvas textures. No text, lettering, signage or numerals anywhere. 16:9 landscape.
