hi michael,

I like this shot....markets: what an attraction!
I visited the Spice Bazaar in Eminonu as well....it's a vibrant place where you can avoid the masses of "cattled tourists" and feel the very essence of this caleidoscopic city!

PS: markets are so different..and yet so similar...as you can see in my theme Jeppo goes to Market

Hallo Michael!
An intriguing photo and a really fascinating scenery! A daily life photo at its best! This colour palette simply is incredible. What will the lady to the left buy ...?
Greetings from cool and rainy Germany!

It is time for good decision. Which one should I buy?
Those spice stands are a photographer’s delight. Even better than any “Turkish Delight”!!! Well done.

Hello Michael!

Great photo, great daily life scene, from the heart of Istanbul, part of which are its colourful bazars, for sure! Excellent composition and framing, great perspective. Excellent light managment, both in terms of exposure and white balance. Beautiful colours! Congratulations!

and here we are :)

The lady looks indeed very surprised. About how much she has to give away for some spice?

Goog POV, fine wide angle. A bit more contrast would be fine.

Best regards
