Büaramarkt Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

A step back in time today with the scene from the Büaramarkt (peasant's market) that took place this sunday in Husseren-Wesserling.

You can see the stands were set up on the central courtyard of this old farm and you can see as well the farmhouse organisation, to the left the stable and on the right the house. The three carts on display were to transport from left to right wine, crops and goods.

From such markets that take place in various locations, you can buy traditional agriculture products like honey, jam, wine, fruit juices, sausages or cheese (the famous alsatian munster).

The village where this market took place is also known for its textile and traditional clothing museum.

A pleasent and well made country market presentation JY. Fine details and a very good placement of this old wagon.

Salut JY,
Le cadrage est très bon avec ce premier plan qui met en valeur l'aspect traditionnel du marché, par contre dommage que la toiture du batiment apparaisse si pimpante ...

Hello Jean Yves
aura t'on droit à une vue en plein marché ? Jolie mise en scene en tout cas, et joli paysage rural. Et le Munster il était bon au moins ?
Concernant le cadrage, j'aurai peut être plus inclus le batiment sur la gauche. Dommage que les stands soient si loin ...
Amicalement, hugues

J'aime bien des événements pareils. Ca a l'air très agéable. Je trouve que tu as bien placé le vieux chariot devant (ton pov je veux dire...). Et le vin avec le fromage, il est bon? Merci pour cette vue agréable.

bonjour jean-yves, the events like this one are always a great source of inspiration; i like this wide perspective presenting the overall view of the place; hope to see some close-ups ?
have a nice afternoon, jerzy

A well-picked shooting angle, JY, to yield a comprehensive view of the yard with the market stands, and a good inclusion of the wagon as a foreground element. I hope you also have some closer photos of the products offered as this might be a nice way to expand this into a little series.

Hi Jean-Yves. A nice catch from this event. It looks like the lighting wasn't on your side and that's too bad. I like to do closer detail oriented shots with a lacking sky present. But your colors and sharpness are both right on. Nicely done JY.

Salut Jean Yves

It looks very much like a local country market in Australia! A good daily life shot, with excellent color & sharpness. I like the placement of the 3 wagons. C'est tres bon!

Hi Jean Yves. A very nice image of village life in France. Sharp and clear. I like the composition of this photo. It has depth and the colours are lively. The reds and the blues really stand out against the basic wood all around them. Very nice. Thanks...
