Photo taken at the Farmers’ Market at the POSTCITY where farmers were bringing along regional, organic products that festivalgoers could taste. In addition to sustainably produced foodstuffs, the focus here is on alternative future agricultural scenarios in which technological innovations play an essential role.

these pictures are all taken with my mobile phone camera. since my digital camera broke down a month ago, i haven't been able to take pics, and it's so frusttrating. these are what i can only work with. so please forgive me for the poor quality.
At this market in Dabajon on the Dominican side of the border Haitians are allowed over the border twice a week (just into the market) to sell anything and everything. It is incredibly busy and crowded.
Most of what they are selling appears to be donated goods from American aid organisations. I guess they are swapping clothes they don't need or want for essentials like food. The Haitians are not allowed out of the market on the Dominican side. There is a bridge between the two countries which is opened on market days. It was challenging not to get hit by a cart or hit on the head by various items being carried on heads.
Cheerfully hopping on a bandwagon started recently by The Southerner (although I did already have a set for the theme), I visited Market Parade in Havant, an area slated for much-needed development. I can remember the current buildings being constructed and have seen their occupancy change many times over the year. The area is now in dire condition both physically and, in many cases, economically. I am, however, not convinced of the coherence of development plans and have some sympathy for the small traders who will be displaced. It is important to note that this is the first part of Havant seen by many people arriving by train.
In the interests of editorial openness, I should make it clear that I went on a Sunday morning as I did not want too many people in my pictures. The number of shutters is therefore accentuated by Sunday closing but there are a number of vacant properties and the poor physical condition can be confirmed by closer examination of the now largely unglazed and substantially oxidised canopies.
As a final, technical, note, these pictures were taken experimentally with a Leica D-Lux 2. This is my first Leica, a used compact, and I can not readily foresee the time when I would spend valuable funds on a new Leica. The camera dates back to about 2005 and seems remarkably capable. I found the colour SOOC a little subdued and have resaturated slightly in each case.

My commute to work is the J-Church, which I pick up at Clipper Street. However, the depot for the historic streetcars which serve the F-Market is also at the end of this line, and it seems that sometimes they run them as a passenger service all the way up to Fisherman's Wharf (as opposed to just Castro). Last Tuesday was one of those occasions.
Taking this rather than the regular J (which I'll have to document at some point) was a welcome change. It's slower down Market Street, as it's overground (and hence waiting at lights) rather than in the subway, but it has nice leather(ette?) seats, and the heating was on just enough to be right. There was also far more room than there usually is in the main service. Lovely.
Fortunatamente anche la iper-tecnologica Tokyo conserva spazi come questo, un mercato a due passi da Ueno con i negozianti che sembrano usciti da un manga, che urlano con megafono (stranissimo in questa silenziosa città) per attirar clienti, vendono patacche e variopinti vegetali.
We hit the St. Lawrence Market North Building on Saturday and market politics hung heavy over the place. It's common for markets to be embroiled intra-market issues, but it's uncommon to see so much of it when you've just dropped by for a little shopping.
Note: I didn't actually run into any politics at this booth... but it was the best photo.
on my way to work ... german market
----------------------------------------------------
The German Christmas market is officially opened by the Lord Provost of Edinburgh on Thursday, November 26th 2009 at 5.15pm and is open until December 24th. The event also sees the launch of other Christmas attractions in Edinburgh: the Ferris Wheel and Winter Wonderland, as well as all of the city's holiday lights switch-on.
The German Christmas market in Edinburgh was located for years in East Princes Street Gardens by the Scott Monument. In 2009, however, the German Christmas market can be found on the Mound precinct, next to the National Gallery of Scotland.
When night falls on Edinburgh and everything is festively lit, the entire panorama -- Winter Wonderland down in the Gardens and the Christmas Market on the Mound -- is simply magical.
The German Christmas market in Edinburgh consists of 25 little wooden cabins, like smurfs homes, each brightly lit with all of the usual seasonal trimmings. The aim of the market is not to rival the original ones in Germany but to bring an authentic continental experience that locals and tourists alike can enjoy.
Marketplace popular with locals and tourists alike, The market's more than 250 vendors sell fresh fruits and vegetables; baked goods; fish, meat and cheeses; nuts, seeds, and spices; wines and liquors; clothing and shoes; and housewares, textiles, and Judaica.
Photography from NCFE at Uni last year. We were given an hour to walk around leicester and snap a few shots of things in small groups to get used to the cameras.
The Friday market in Brantome - lots of tourists so high prices - the variety and availability of fresh and locally produced product was lovelly
Cooking demonstrations, beverages, and lots of wonderful goods from local farms are all in one place!
Shop, socialize and get your weekend off to a fantastic start at Minnetrista!
I'm sure this guy wondered why I kept watching him...he seemed to be on a break, people watching. He had an interesting face, and I loved the flip to the front of his hair...it felt '50s to me. Somehow, I would bet he carries a comb in his back pocket, along with a handkerchief. Although, that may just be wishful thinking. I really wanted a photo of him looking in my direction, he had glowy blue eyes, but I was too chicken. Details I like: worn steel toe boots, strong looking hands, blue sky reflection
Christkindlesmarkt or "Nürnberger Christkindlesmarkt“ is a Christmas market held annually in Nuremberg, Germany.
