Classical view during the period of global economic crisis. This photo taken at a shopping mall to show the atmosphere of member day's sales. I was sick at the second day after shopping here, I worry was become a victim of Influenza A, eventually I'm not and I recover soon.

Hi Ally.This scene is so familiar since I saw so many sales and crazed shoppers while in Malaysia.I actually plan to post a photo of my own showing the frenzy behind a handbag and shoe sale. Women can be dangerous at such times as they hunt for bargains. Very good POV with the discount signs going into infinity. Regards. Klaudio.

Hi Ally,

A good capture of the daily life activity, the vertical frame is giving a sense of depth. The point of view is showing the action by the shoppers in the store. The surrounding light is enhancing the colors. Have a nice day.

hi Ally

This is not a place for photographers. Crowded, lack of oxygen and empty wallets quickly. I am guessing this is JAYA JUSCO at BU.

Quite interesting. And perhaps some TE shoppers should drop by and get good discounts, when our currency is low and shopping is a paradise here.

tfs, bill

TopGeo (21385) 2009-05-28 5:56

Hi Ally! He is correct exists in the consumers logic! They are decreased the prices today it requires and it can mean also we think for the future with gravity. Good your idea in order to it gives us the brake in the irresponsible consumerism and in the withholding.

jlbrthnn (36842) 2009-05-28 6:06

Hello Ally,
It is a forest of panels which express all the same thing. Is it an extraordinary image, which will buy all these goods proposed? , there is too much of it. The image is very well made, from an adequate point of view. Cheer.
Have a ncie day
Cordially

Hello Ally,

The crazy of sales exist too in Belgium.... A POV very well slecetd for this original hot. Good framing too. An image rich of details very well collected. Congratulations.
Have a good evening,
Roger

stego (22322) 2009-05-28 12:14

Hi Ally,
What a chaos! It's the same everywhere. Despite the chaos and the annoying atmosphere, you got quite a catchy image, for its colours and the pattern. It's surprising how it looks so tidy graphically.
Regards,
José

Kielia (8167) 2009-05-28 12:25

Hi Ally,
what a busy place! I would have become sick too after a visit of this market. Hopefully you have fully recovered?
I like this image a lot, the impression is excellently composed and there are so many fascinating details to discover. My compliments, also for the note!
Warm regards
Harriet

A nice pattern shot showing the repeating signs and umbrellas. Nicely done.

Hello Ally
I hope everyone finds a bargain during this global economic crisis. Looks like chaos and a place to avoid - and miss a bargain. Tfs, Marlene

I like a lot the way the crowded place appears here.
Have a nice day,

Hu Ally,
Well taken from this angle, and interesting detail with this colourful umbrella among the people.

adramad (3242) 2009-05-29 9:02

Hello Ally.
Really your photo catches to the perfection the environment of burden of what they are the first days of reductions. Good POV and very good color to show so many heterogeneous things.
Regards.
Luis.

penny12 (132) 2009-05-29 9:35

Hi Ally,
That place is caotic! Good idea of capturing such a moment. A picture full of life, not to mention full of... noise! Well done! Excellent executed!

Hi Ally,

great shot! this is really crazy! I like it, the perspective is very good, you had a good idea.
I'm glad you are ok!

Best regards

tober (3886) 2009-05-29 17:25

Hello Ally, when I saw the thumbnail version first, I assumed that could be a photo of a big demonstration. Thanks to your very well chosen high PoV, we are in control of all the corners of the market. One of the most impressive market scape photos that I've seen lately. Congratulations, Tolga

ElAprendiz (7370) 2009-05-30 18:25

Hello Ally:

The frame is closed, displays a dramatic scene and congestionante.

A dynamic and interesting, all at 50% and 70%, suggesting an excellent market offerings, which I hope you've taken advantage of.

Good composition and perfect frame.

John

jusninasirun (10054) 2009-05-30 21:32

Hi Ally,

Crazy signs with crowded area. Very well framed and captured of the busyness of the crazy sales. TFS!

Have a great weekend and best regards,
Jusni

foozi (4559) 2009-05-30 23:30

Hi Ally,
this makes me think of sogo in KL. so crowded and so much price reduction. but of course on selected items.
You have captured it very well.
It gives such a great feeling to see this crowd.
Well done.

regards,
Foozi

dumbo (4288) 2009-05-31 2:02

Hi Ally,
I like this very crezy photo with all those people trying to find something nice and cheap to buy as soon as possible. Great high POV and fine colors.
Good work!

Best regards,
Eino

Urs (2425) 2009-05-31 2:20

Hi, Your picture shows who it really is, almost 365 days of sales around the year - and all the prices are marked up first and then discounted ... excellent capture of the atmosphere, where the wide angle significantly pushes up the crowd impression. Good work

Best regards Urs

batalay (20680) 2009-05-31 2:27

Hello Ally,

For its genre — a slice of daily life in a shopping mall — this is a genuine classic. I have never seen such density of commercial activity, where each square inch is worthy of careful scrutiny. There is a frenzied pace that can be shown only with a well chosen vantage point, and you've certainly achieved that.

Warm regards,

Bulent

danos (31610) 2009-05-31 9:31

Hello Ally,
what a crazy world in the middle of the International crisis! Are they sure or the big 'heads' are ridicule us? The same scene you can see in Greece,as Canada that i returned latterly.A very good snapshot of the period of sales.

Have a nice week,Danos

PaulVDV (5040) 2009-06-01 7:05

Hello Ally,
In this picture I recognise the mad world during the days of bargains in shops.
Usually such sights discourage me to enter a shop at that moment. Being a man I guess that's a normal feeling.
I don't understand my female colleagues who love those days.
Best regards, Paul

dip (12408) 2009-06-02 2:26

Hi Ally,
very good capture of this shopping frenzy,
the scene seems very interesting from this high POV,
very well done,
Greetings,
Dimitris.

riclopes (32845) 2009-06-03 0:53

Olá Ally, great view from above this "crazy on sales" and funny short note. Love the graphism given by the cardboards and the effect of the colorful umbrellas popping out from the mess, starting with this pinky one. I would feel claustrophobic downthere but wouldn't mind staying here and observe the activity for quite a while ;-)

jafadabret (38907) 2009-06-03 22:55

Bonjour Ally.
Cette photo donne bien l'ambiance d'un marché en plein air. J'aime la multitude des couleurs et des gens qui emplissent le cadre. Le parasol rose fait un excellent point d'accroche.
Bien fait !
Jacques

fanni (8711) 2009-06-04 1:33

Hello Ally,
wow! LOL :)) what a mess, what a colourful messy crowd! We don't have such scenes in Russia (especially Moscow) for sure! not even in the time of the crisis... Excellently observed scene!
Best regards,
Elena

skippy007 (6781) 2009-06-04 18:15

Hello Ally, Very good POV for capturing this amazing looking scene. I look at the discount signs, the people & the items for sale but my eye always returns to the pink umbrella. Interesting & a good quality image.

Santo

ryno (4568) 2009-07-19 5:05

Hi Ally, this is an interesting daily life shot. I like the frenzy of activity here, and the repetition of the signs creates an good pattern. I'm not sure about the colour though, there seems to be a kind of green tinge to the image. Everything else is great.
Regards
Ryno
