Saturday stroll through the biggest and oldest market hall in Budapest. Armed only with the Nikon D7200 and Nikkor 18-35mm f/1.8, so I had to sneak in pretty close in order to get some good pictures of people.
I turned the pictures into black and white because there was such a jumble of colours and different tones of light that it was hurting my eyes. Many of the meat shops were using sickly blue lights, that together with the natural light coming from outside, and the yellow tones from the "street lamps" are not pleasing to look at.
The upper floor was mainly full of tourist crap; funny t-shirts, keychains and supposedly handmade Hungarian crafts, but I can spot a machine made lace from a mile away. The ground floor was much better, with fresh produce and local products. It's always interesting to go to food markets and see what is the IT thing in their country, in Hungary it's of course paprika, in terms of alcohol there is Tokaji and Palinka, and then there was a lot of lavender and honey being sold. We didn't actually end up being anything else than some fruits for snacks but it was a fun experience to walk through the market, watching people.
The 4th shot from the bottom was my favorite. The shopkeeper has that certain "what dafuq u want" look.
HAha, that is my favourite too! I'm pretty sure someone wanted a discount and he wasn't having it :P
Wonderful photos. :)
Thanks! :)
brilliant thought, wherever the market always shows things differently one of them is colorful lights to attract or the consumer likes it, but not all so. good post, so you thought to post this problem.
The pictures look great with the white and black background. I hope your experience was full of fun
the idea of changing color is a brilliant idea, so its plasticity is very fun I like your picture. You are not just beautiful but you are also clever@evauncovered
That vanishing point is so amazing with lights, great work!
Did you noticed the name of the restaurant on the upper floor?
:)
No? If it’s Hungarian, I don’t know what it means 😅
Fa means wood and kanál means spoon :D
really awesome shots @eveuncovered, love the first two
Thanks Jeff! :)
