Shot it at Puskar, it's just 11 km. from Ajmer(RAJASTAN,INDIA) comes alive during Puskar Fair, when people from all over Rajasthan converge at Pushkar with their cattle stock. Pushkar Fair is regarded as one of the largest camel festivals in the world. Celebrated in the month of October-November, Pushkar Fair attracts domestic as well as foreign tourist to Pushkar in Rajasthan.
Pushkar festival is not about camels only but it is also about horses, cows, goats, sheep and most importantly about the lively people of Rajasthan, who come to the Pushkar fair in their best attires. The festival looks like a riot of colors with men wearing colourful turbans and women in pleated ghagaras (ankle-length skirts) of different hues. The festival offers a wonderful opportunity to see the people selling and buying camels, goats, horses etc. Bargaining, negotiations and transactions remain order of the days during the festival.
Sporting events are other attractions of the Pushkar Fair. One can enjoy the camel and horse races during the festival. Camel beauty contest is another highlight of the festival. The beautifully decked up camels are paraded and then the most beautiful camel is selected.
Pushkar is a religious town and is one of the important pilgrimage centers of Hindus. Pushkar is known for the holy Pushkar Lake and the many temples that dot the area. Puskar is associated with lord Brahma and is the only place in India, which has a temple dedicated to lord Brahma.

A camel trader at Pushkar camel fair looks disapprovingly at the bargain going on in the neighbouring tent. Early mornings and evenings are the busiest time at the fair, where annually more than a hundred thousand camels and equal number of other cattle change hands. Morning is occuppied by cleaning, cooking, grooming and preparing the camel. Bidding activities start early and goes on till sunset. The fair ground gets busy once again, cooking, cleaning, gossiping and preparing for the night, spent in the open, not always under even a tent.

Ive posted this for my flickr friend 'Ekawrecker' and is from the Film 'All neat in black stockings' and is not as sexy as the title suggests!
But there are lots of street scenes and a very long shot of this Trader coming out of the side road on the left and driving past the camera and you get the full six cylinder sound with hydrovac too!
Its cuts off before the FFK comes into full view though..
Not much of a story but its about a ginger chap who likes women and drives a Ford Prefect van!

We travelled from Luxor to Aswan on a Cruise Boat. In fact we cruised for 4 days and nights stopping along the way to visit some interesting places. During our trips we have to navigate through 2 locks as the water levels were different. During one of our stops at the lock, we were mobbed by these river traders. There were literally dozens of them. We were on the top most deck 4 storey above th waterline (where the swimming pool were) having afternoon tea while enjoying the views... they threw their wares wrapped in plastic bags to us for us to inspect and buy if we want to or throw back to them 4 storey down similarly wrapped. It was funny to see some of the wares being thrown back floating away in the Nile.
A very hastily taken and, therefore, slightly blurred photo of a well-worked Thames Trader mixer, taken in Tower Road on the coast between Sliema and St. Julians in 1989. She belonged to Formosa Construction from San Gwann and when I next encountered her in September 1993, she had been taken-off the road and was laid-up in their yard. Today the villas in the background have been replaced by modern developments.
This store was originally a Gaylords store. It was apparently later a Grants store. This store was last a Trader Horn until the chain closed in May 2016.

A myriad of colours at the fish markets. Notably most fish traders here are women and they almost all donning the batik.

Safely stashed-away in an open fronted shed in New Zealand's thinly populated Northland region, this lightweight 4-cylinder diesel-powered Thames Trader contemplates its future.
The Thames Trader was assembled in Lower Hutt near Wellington from kits imported from the UK and was a popular truck in its time. There are a good number of survivors here but not too many "on the road" currently.

A Camel Trader happy having concluded a sale at Pushkar Camel Fair in Rajasthan. Pushkar Fair or Mela attracts as many as 100,000 camels from all over Rajasthan. This Holy town, the location of the only temple dedicated to Brahma, the creator in the Hindu Trinity, comes to life with camels, colourfully dressed people, mendicants, shops and folk performers in Oct-Nov every year. This year it is being hel from 18th to 24th November 2007.
Another Trader Horn in Butler. This one is in an area called Nixon. Oddly enough, the other Butler Trader Horn was just a few miles from here. This was previousy a "Warehouse Sales" (predecessor to Trader Horn) store. This Trader Horn closed in May 2016

St. Louis is an independent city and inland port in the U.S. state of Missouri. It is situated along the western bank of the Mississippi River, which marks Missouri's border with Illinois. The Missouri River merges with the Mississippi River just north of the city. These two rivers combined form the fourth longest river system in the world. The city had an estimated 2017 population of 308,626 and is the cultural and economic center of the St. Louis metropolitan area (home to nearly 3,000,000 people), which is the largest metropolitan area in Missouri, the second-largest in Illinois (after Chicago), and the 22nd-largest in the United States.
Before European settlement, the area was a regional center of Native American Mississippian culture. The city of St. Louis was founded in 1764 by French fur traders Pierre Laclède and Auguste Chouteau, and named after Louis IX of France. In 1764, following France's defeat in the Seven Years' War, the area was ceded to Spain and retroceded back to France in 1800. In 1803, the United States acquired the territory as part of the Louisiana Purchase. During the 19th century, St. Louis became a major port on the Mississippi River; at the time of the 1870 Census it was the fourth-largest city in the country. It separated from St. Louis County in 1877, becoming an independent city and limiting its own political boundaries. In 1904, it hosted the Louisiana Purchase Exposition and the Summer Olympics.
The economy of metropolitan St. Louis relies on service, manufacturing, trade, transportation of goods, and tourism. Its metro area is home to major corporations, including Anheuser-Busch, Express Scripts, Centene, Boeing Defense, Emerson, Energizer, Panera, Enterprise, Peabody Energy, Ameren, Post Holdings, Monsanto, Edward Jones, Go Jet, Purina and Sigma-Aldrich. Nine of the ten Fortune 500 companies based in Missouri are located within the St. Louis metropolitan area. The city has also become known for its growing medical, pharmaceutical, and research presence due to institutions such as Washington University in St. Louis and Barnes-Jewish Hospital. St. Louis has two professional sports teams: the St. Louis Cardinals of Major League Baseball and the St. Louis Blues of the National Hockey League. One of the city's iconic sights is the 630-foot (192 m) tall Gateway Arch in the downtown area.

The National Museum of Transportation (NMOT) is a private, 42-acre transportation museum in the Kirkwood suburb of St. Louis, Missouri. Founded in 1944, it restores, preserves, and displays a wide variety of vehicles spanning 15 decades of American history: cars, boats, aircraft, and in particular, locomotives and railroad equipment from around the United States. The museum is also home to a research library of transportation-related memorabilia and documents.
At the southwest corner of the property is West Barretts Tunnel. Built in 1853, it is one of a pair of tunnels that were the first to operate west of the Mississippi River. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
The museum has its own railway spur to an active main line formerly owned by the Missouri Pacific Railroad, now by the Union Pacific Railroad. This has allowed the museum to take possession of large and unusual pieces of railroad equipment. A miniature railroad operates around a loop of track near the parking lot and a full-sized restored trolley operates Thursday–Sunday from April through October.
Trader Joe's space here is actually newer as it was at least partly built in the area that had been parking for Kmart's auto center back in the day and perhaps also for the garden shop. I'm not 100% sure, but I do believe some of the former Hobby Lobby is used for this tenant.
