Many villages, small towns, or even cities have a once a week outdoor market where you can buy vegetables and goods. Go out and show us the best shot taken of a market. Your photo doesn't have to be of a specific stand or someone selling something. If it's clear your photo was taken at an outdoor market, it is on theme.
Status: finished. Check out the winners below!
Zizounai: Your photo seems to represent a covered market. Is it allowed here? ( 5 years and 660 days ago )

Really good. Concentration on the face and focus on the task of cutting the meat is very good. It brings the image alive. You can 'see' him cutting the meat.

Oh gosh....I ended up meeting this butcher on the street and shaking his hand in greeting. The crowds gathered around us as we chatted. The young man asked if I knew what I had done by shaking his hand. I shook a hand of the lowest caste, the untouchable....HOLY SHIT....one does not do this in this culture. What a world huh?! This scene was really interesting because women were gathered around this butcher as he was slicing, they were there with buckets ready to collect the blood of this animal for consumption. I eat and enjoy blood pudding, so I suppose I could have been there too , with a bucket. Excuse my rambling, just in a chatty mood.
Wow! A brave photo. I might well have hurried on and not turned back. I think I will eat more veggies from now on. Its a challenge because of the content but as an image it catches the eye and gets you talking and thinking. Its not everywhere that meat comes in nice sanitized containers with cling film seals.
author says:
Thank you for those comments and all I can think about are the maggots on this dead flesh.....ooooooooooooops maybe I should not have said that.
I am curious to know how the lady managed to get into that seat. I can't see a way in or out. She is trapped. :-0
author says:
Never in a million years would I have thought of that....HOW, indeed. She most likely has grown roots. I will take you and Ron here where you come over. Thank you for my morning smile.
Super photo. Lots going on here. Quizzical looks from the lady cooled by the fan; customer trying on a hat; shop owner anxious to make a sale. Good composition with figures going diagonally across the image and lots of colour and shapes. I like it a lot.
author says:
Never noticed that diagonal...hmmmm good eyes, thank you.
