I love shopping at outdoor markets and places where shops have street displays. Even the most mundane fruit and vegetables can look much more colourful and inviting there than they ever do in a pristine supermarket display. When I travel abroad I particularly enjoy wandering around local markets and taking in all the colour. Here are a few photographs from my trips to India, plus an old favourite from China.
Outdoor market in Jaipur
Local street market in Rajasthan
Umbrellas for sale lying beside a market stall
Stall selling Festival flowers – South India
Stall selling Festival dyes – South India
Beautiful dried fruit display – Dunhuang, China
So busy and vibrant with textures and colours.
Such gorgeous photographs, makes me want to visit India to see these incredible colours. i love the one with the dyes.
