Il mercato del pesce di Rialto/Rialto Fish Market (Weekend Street/Reflections # 15)

 

Venice, Italy

Sometimes it's best to get advice from an expert. People have been buying fish at this market for over nine hundred years.

Have a great weekend!

Now you can link reflections and/or street photography. 

Please no posed pictures, portraits, animals, etc. unless of course there is a reflection.

"Street photography, a genre of photography that records everyday life in a public place. The very publicness of the setting enables the photographer to take candid pictures of strangers, often without their knowledge."

  3. Wonderful looking fish market. No wonder it has remained in business so long. Another fine photo telling a good story.

  4. A fun moment to watch! The food markets outside are so typically European. That's we have to "miss" here. Have a great weekend, James, and thanks for the comment back last week. Maybe I should completely cut out any news to have more peace of mind, haha, Jesh

  6. That looks like a still out of a movie. The B&W really makes it.

  7. There's something right and good about the fish markets. Even the ones here in the U.S. where or near to where the fishing fleet comes in. Even in grocery store the fish is sooo much more interesting than hamburger and sausage, roasts and steaks. Where tourists come the selling staff generally like getting their pictures taken. But I generally ask so it would be posed and not qualified for a "Street" catch. Like my guy a few weeks ago, fishing for golf balls in a golf course water hazard.

  9. On sent bien dans ton image la communication entre le poissonnier donnant toutes les explications nécessaires à la cliente attentive. Difficile à faire passer par l'image.
