The first pic looks quite gloomy, but the people still cheerful.
The second one seems to have the perfect weather for a good day at the market :)
I like the way the descent leads to an ascent. So wise and necessary!
I love the market! You captured the feeling of it so wonderfully, with such a few words. Great photos!
a day at the markets! :) well written :)
a fun take on the prompt -- in this case, what goes down must come up!
I enjoyed the photos of the market place and your description of the time.
Looks like a fabulous day for market browsing!
your words make me miss the antiquing my husband & i used to do (too busy with the kids & we have enough 'stuff' now ;-)
I love these markets and can get high on whimsy!
Hi Gemma!
I know that descent...it's like a meditation. Thanks for the smiles of recognition and 'ah'!
What did you come up with? the pictures alone or a market trinket too?
