I posted a short piece about shopping at Place Flagey Market in 2009. It is a welcome port of call on a Saturday or Sunday morning, with plenty of organic produce on sale. This week I took my camera and set the focus to macro ando took some photos of various items on sale. I didn’t take photos of meat, fish or cheeses; as these are displayed behind glass for reasons of hygiene. The inspiration being the weekly photography tip sharing session #TogChat on Twitter, which takes place each Wednesday at 3pm EDT. This week the subject for discussion is “macro”. It transpires that my photos are not macro photos, as the subject has to cast an image larger than the CCD of the camera to qualify. So all of my photos are close ups, but they still represent a different view of the market than my previous visit.
I’ve no idea what this last fruit is. If you know leave your answer in the comments. I’ll check your responses in Google images and the first correct answer will get a mention including their Twitter handle and website if they have one.
On a different note. It was warming to see that a new production team was caught in action on the remake of “Shopping in Pace Flagey Market”, a film about Belgian extreme sports.
