all your market pictures are wonderful, and full of color and flavor. I especially like the one of the two ladies talking, I love how you capture things and people in their natural elements.
Great pictures Jientje, love the close ups. The pictures with the two old gents discussing something is great. Did the fellow selling his fruit juice have any sales?
You have a Wonderful Sunday. Stop by the blog and see if you can guess what the close up is.
Oh I love these market pictures. I would love to be able to shop like that. We have weekly farmer's market's here but not on that scale. Look at those spices! And the people are fantastic. I can't believe how shiny those eggplants are! Great photo's.
Oh .. they are lovely!! It's like being there .. I can smell the fresh produce and spices and the hear the buzz of people! Thank you so much for the award!!! What a surprise!! (:)o= xxx that's me blowing kisses across the miles!!
Your weekly winners posts are always fun, but this week is especially! Love the flowers, the people (that woman with the finger, man with hand on mouth), the produce. Great!
I already gave out the great award you gave me to three other bloggers. I enjoyed spreading the joy.
Ditto to all the positive comments above mine. In a nice, and wordless way, we see why Europe knows more about good living than we in the states. Who doesn't like the colors of an outdoor market?
Wonderful shots!!! Love the eggplant and blossoms, the spices, breads and the people! Thank you for sharing! I'm wondering where moneythoughts is in the states that they don't know where to find a farmer's market? Send them my way, I'd love to help!
That is a cognitive explosion - I go over and over and discover amazing new stimulus for my brain and senses in the pictures every time I go through - the colors - the different and interesting people - and the food that is so real and not like those plastic like thing in the store... my eyes are overwhelmed with joy!
Wow I feel like I just took a stroll with you at the market. Those were some shiny eggplants. And squash flowers. Reminds me of the most amazing meal I had in Mexico City of squash blossom enchiladas.
Wonderful pictures. I love visitng the world through photographs of places I might not have known about otherwise. Wishing you a scent-sational day! Patty
Love the fresh and oh so shiny veggies. Last Sunday I fried up some eggplant, all golden and crispy. It was soooo very good. Coming to good ole USA, that will be fun. October is just around the corner! Love your photos of the market!
What great pictures. Those Eggplants look like marbles they are so shiny. The old guy selling the fruit juice looks like "Oh please please buy one" and the lady in red looks to be giving a lecture...Great pictures. Love 'em
@ Kaye: I find great pleasure in photographing people. @ Robin: I had not noticed that yet, I hyave not bought any either. Are they cheaper where you are? @ Korie: The French Provence markets are so vivid and colorful, our favourites! @ spacedlaw: And music! @ Carletta: Yes, one of my favourites,that one! It came out just the way I wanted it to! @ Bill: He looks bored eh? @ hip chick: They looked like they polished them, don't they? @ Bim: Thanks! @ Wanda: You said that right, Heaven is where you find it I always say... @ Secret Mom thoughts: I had fun there, does it show? @ Avril: You're welcome on the award, much deserved! Blowing some kisses right back at you! @ Tara R: Thanks! @ Leora: I had fun! @ Dianne: I find the colors in Provence are amazing, wherever you go.
@ Gattina: No complaints. @ Moneythoughts: And the people in Provence are experts in good living. @ Willow: I had fun with that camera, whether I photographed people, or produce. @ Mama Pajama: Provence markets have just that little touch of French joie de vivre, I think that's what Moneythoughts was trying to say? @ Ellie: Why thank you, that was such a beautiful comment. I'm glad you enjoyed them so much! @ BBE: Provence markets are great, and I love to buy cheese there too, even though they don't come cheap! @ Quilly: Make a wish? Who knows? @ Punck Rock Mom: I seem to trigger some great memories of all sorts with this post? @ camerapatty: Thank you, and yes, ... yesterday did turn into a wonderful day! @ Maggie: Thank you Maggie, I kind of miss seeing yours lately? Did you play? Coming right over! @ Becky: Sounds delicious, you make me hungry! Yup, October will be here soon, I know! @ The Retired One: One of the things I enjoy so much,is try to capture and show the right mood and atmosphere. @ Thom: Well, she was giving a lecture actually. The vendors in Provence always do that when you buy something. Good advice, a recipe, anything, but they always lecture you! In this case the lady was selling lavender essence, probably explaining how it was made? @ Kathy: I had fun, shooting the pictures and making the post. And reading all your wonderful comments!

I like how you catched the people ! Didn't they complain or did you play Paperazzi ??
ReplyDeleteDitto to all the positive comments above mine. In a nice, and wordless way, we see why Europe knows more about good living than we in the states. Who doesn't like the colors of an outdoor market?
ReplyDeleteI love open markets! These photos show the people so well, their expressions and gestures. My fave: the spices.
