I was looking at what was on discount after the holidays and I found these rather odd looking lights. I can see why they didn't sell but I like them.

Popularly known as the sonajhuri haat its a shopping heaven every Saturday on the banks of khoai river, Bolpur West Bengal India. Its an open air market where you can buy tribal items and many more stuffs while listening to wonderful baul songs, sung by some local bauls sitting aside.
There is no starting no end - as there is a clearing near the bridges, and people just set up shop there on the ground. No tables, no mess and everyone is walking through and bargaining.
We met artisans who are setting shop there since the last 20+ years and have also been invited to the nearby Shantiniketan University(Famous for Rabindranath Tagore) for showcasing their art & talent. Prices can be very steep - but on average are way lower than the stores in the cities. We bought sarees (linen, cotton and others), wire paintings, leather bags, batik cotton shawls.
Overall a very good experience and something unique.

The Centre Pompidou, more fully the Centre national d'art et de culture Georges-Pompidou, also known as the Pompidou Centre in English, is a complex building in the Beaubourg area of the 4th arrondissement of Paris, near Les Halles, rue Montorgueil, and the Marais. It was designed in the style of high-tech architecture by the architectural team of Richard Rogers, Su Rogers and Renzo Piano, along with Gianfranco Franchini.
It houses the Bibliothèque publique d'information, a vast public library; the Musée National d'Art Moderne, which is the largest museum for modern art in Europe; and IRCAM, a centre for music and acoustic research. Because of its location, the centre is known locally as Beaubourg. It is named after Georges Pompidou, the President of France from 1969 to 1974 who commissioned the building, and was officially opened on 31 January 1977 by President Valéry Giscard d'Estaing.
The centre had 3.1 million visitors in 2022, a large increase from 2021 but still below 2019 levels, due to closings caused by the COVID pandemic. It has had more than 180 million visitors since 1977 and more than 5,209,678 visitors in 2013, including 3,746,899 for the museum.
The sculpture Horizontal by Alexander Calder, a free-standing mobile that is 7.6 m tall, was placed in front of the Centre Pompidou in 2012.
The idea for a multicultural complex, bringing together different forms of art and literature in one place, developed, in part, from the ideas of France's first Minister of Cultural Affairs, André Malraux, a proponent of the decentralisation of art and culture by impulse of the political power. In the 1960s, city planners decided to move the food markets of Les Halles, historically significant structures long prized by Parisians, with the idea that some of the cultural institutes be built in the former market area. Hoping to renew the idea of Paris as a leading city of culture and art, it was proposed to move the Musée d'Art Moderne to this new location. Paris also needed a large, free public library, as one did not exist at this time. At first the debate concerned Les Halles, but as the controversy settled, in 1968, President Charles de Gaulle announced the Plateau Beaubourg as the new site for the library. A year later in 1969, Georges Pompidou, the new president, adopted the Beaubourg project and decided it to be the location of both the new library and a centre for the contemporary arts. In the process of developing the project, the IRCAM (Institut de Recherche et Coordination Acoustique/Musique) was also housed in the complex.
The Rogers and Piano design was chosen among 681 competition entries. World-renowned architects Oscar Niemeyer, Jean Prouvé and Philip Johnson made up the jury. It was the first time in France that international architects were allowed to participate. The selection was announced in 1971 at a "memorable press conference" where the contrast between the sharply-dressed Pompidou and "hairy young crew" of architects represented a "grand bargain between radical architecture and establishment politics."
I was on holiday with my wife in North Wales when we stumbled across this place in Caernarfon. It looked like it had certainly seen more glorious times in the past and I found it interesting as a subject due to its evident slow decay. However when the lady walked past the store she somehow - in my mind at least - transformed the scene into one that could have been out of the 1960s/1970s. The shop then became the perfect backdrop for what had become a candid portrait. Shot on a Canon EOS 6D & Canon EF 28-80mm f/2.8-4.0L
