Very well done seeing this image. I can almost imagine it in a Henri Cartier-Bresson book! The woman standing next to the statue mirroring the pose while another woman in the foreground looks to be doing the same is a real decisive moment. Unfortunately the statue with the key in his back is a little distracting as it is centre frame and really draws your attention but other little details like the small statue looking up at the women and the man eating ice cream really add to the moment. Very very very well done
Great viewpoint, well done for realising a straight down shot would work here as I know how hard it is to visualise a scene like this from ground level. The colours and soft edges on the left sit nicely with the straight edges of the green rows. Good choice of altitude - I like the size of the people in the frame, any lower and the pattern would have been lost.

**This contest is open to photographers ranked between 251 and 1000 in this week’s <a href="https://www.photocrowd.com/photographer-community/">Leaderboard</a>.** As a way to explore the different cultures of the world, markets are a great place to start. At stall after stall, heaped on tables, shelves and floors, you get an introduction to a culture’s cuisine, fashion, home furnishings, and more. You see the market’s visitors doing their shopping, mingling, living their lives, and it’s a place where the photographer can find images everywhere they look.
