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
(154,629 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!

(154,629 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
(154,629 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
(154,629 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 . . .

(37,781 posts)Mentioning me along with Andy in the same sentence … I can’t wrap my mind around that!
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!
CaliforniaPeggy
(154,629 posts)I'll bet it was great too.
I was really looking for color today, and it was abundant!
Thank you!

(125,556 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
(154,629 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!

(154,629 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.
