A scene from the weekend market in Chatuchak market. A food vendor hands out to a buyer a plastic bag containing spicy Thai noodles. The exchange was made after some serious price negotiation which I listened with great interest.

Chatuchak is the Disneyland of Thai markets. Everything is sold here, from live chickens and snakes to opium pipes and herbal remedies. It's a must stop for anybody who visits Bangkok.

Hello Danilo,
I like the fine capture of the closing of the deal!
Warm colours and good details, actually the view makes me hungry...
Well framed with a little nit, since you cut a bit off his hand!
Greetings,

Very good composition with a perfect timing. Thailand is so much food oriented (great food!) it is immediately getting me back to this country to see this food market scene.

From Kuala Lumpur en route to Hanoi!

Hi Danilo,
Good capture of the interchange between the seller and customer. Yeah, Chatuchak market is a nice place to make shopping and photos. I was there not so long ago and I enjoyed it. Good choice of vertical framing and colors well rendered.
Cheers

Hi Danilo,

I will are very honest, the composition and colours are very well, but the generally sharpness is not the best of your gallery.
I hope that you this can appreciate!
Thanks for sharing.

I wish you a nice Easter day,
John.

Hello Danilo,
A very nice capture of one of the small details of daily life. Excellent detail and framing, though like Pablo I'm a bit peeved that you have cropped the top of the hand ;-) Good use of depth of field.

İnterestig photo Danilo,
Very well capture.Good colours and POV.
Happy Easter to you too.
TFS.
Regards.

Very creative idea for a different type of market shot. As others have mentioned if you had raised the camera slightly to include all the hand it would have been better, but an unusual image.

Hello Danilo,

Markets are one my favorite places too. Your caught is very interesting here while olive (I think so) and pasta together which is separated foods in many countries. This is a very good section from daily life there. Congratulations.

Happy Easter to you and your family,

Friendly Regards,

Ertugrul

Hi Danilo,
Chatuchak is quite an experience, specially for a first-timer. Its buzzing with actvity and the sheer magnitude of goods on offer is mind blowing. Nice composition of the pair of hands exchanging goods.
Best Wishes

Hi Danilo,
I go many times in Chatuchak to make pictures(maybe you already noticed that!) A nice close up here, right in the action of this deal with good framing, nice colors and narrow DOF concentrating the eye on the focus points
Well done
Laurent

Hi Danilo. That is indeed a peculiar hand-off. This is a very good daily life moment that is well captured. I like how we just see arms and no faces. The focus and DOF are both perfect. Good one Danilo.

Hi Danilo
This is the great daily life scene for me.
Thats very good you given good details of life in Bangkok.
Nice colors and details
TFS/Kind regards

Hola Danilo.
Very good composition with nice colorful shot, the noodles looks very appetizing, good POV. Maybe a little more sharpness would be good, but this doesn't change at all your compo.
Well done. TFS.

Hi Danilo,
I like the concept also. Your description of the Disneyland of markets makes it sound very attractive. I read the critiques with interest, Ertugrul's idea of olives and pasta matched my thoughts.
