But I'm so glad I did! And I hope you enjoy.

Those jars could look mundane, but the colors make them pop. The diagonal split is the perfect touch.

All of those details make a difference.

CaliforniaPeggy
(154,567 posts)I go to two different ones and they're both great markets.
I usually take more photos than buy stuff, but nobody seems to mind!

(154,567 posts)You should definitely do that.
There is so much beauty out there. Once you start looking for it, you'll wonder how you went so long without seeing it!
And then, you can share them with us!

CaliforniaPeggy
(154,567 posts)I was shooting in macro mode and it's fun seeing how close I can get!
And I also remembered to use my little zoom (the lens goes from 12 to 45mm) so I can really move around quite a lot!

CaliforniaPeggy
(154,567 posts)I felt inspired today; the sun was out, the breeze cool but not cold and there were quite a few people there. It all added up to a delightful time.
You inspire me, much the way Andy did. Thank you . . .

A thousand thank yous.
As do you inspire me with your continued optimism and eye for beauty.

I love how the colors of the flowers really pop!

I was really looking for color today, and it was abundant!
Thank you!

(125,369 posts)simply stunning! And, is it just my eyes, or do those carrots look like they are glowing? What a wonderful, vibrant, beautiful gift you are sharing with us. Our deepest thanks.
CaliforniaPeggy
(154,567 posts)There's a macro mode on my camera and I made full use of it. And then I remembered my little zoom and I made great use of that too!
Getting this close means a lot to me.
And here I thought everybody was tired of my repetitive photos! Guess not!

(154,567 posts)I hear you about the violet flowers! No idea what they are. And that color is true to what I saw today.
Really an astonishing hue.
