Market in flood time, a photo from Thua Thien-Hue, North Central Coast

Photographer's Note

Please open both photos in new tabs for the better versions.
As I wandered, wading through the shallow flood waters I came to the Hue market area which was near the river and therefore well flooded. The stall holders had just moved up into the streets finding spots clear of the water. You can see the water in the background of the main photo.
In the WS is another market stall on the very wet road.

Hello Ian,
Apparently there is no need to rinse the fruit bought at this market. The flooding has probably already handled that. Amazing but rather sad street photos.
Regards,
Gert

HI Ian,

You have captured well the action at the market. The point of view is showing the details of the fruits and vegetables. The light is giving good colors rendering. Have a nice day.

Hi Ian,
nice combination of the market scene and the particular circumstances of the flood.
I like the repeated pattern of banana in the foreground. People add a nice colorful crowd.
Very well spotted,
M

Hello Ian,
A very nice impression from the market with lots of sellers and buyers in the composition. Their clothes add some nice and appealing colours and so do the many bananas in the foreground.

Hi Ian
What i like most is the mixture of colours, that's the strength about this shot while the seller is perfectly placed to make the shot function. Excellent street shot
Best regards

Hi Ian,

A good daily life scene for the outdoor street market in Vietnam. Lots of bananas on sale! Good colour and sharpness. Tfs!

ian

nice these two views of the local vegetable market, looks like they prefer to put the fruits and products near the ground as it was usual in the old times.

take care

Hello Ian,

Your main photograph is very well composed, with the stall holder, the customer and the bananas creating a very interesting, sharp and colourful f/g.
We can see the flood water in the distance, which emphasises how resilient and experienced these people are!

My warm regards,
Bev :-)
