Weekly #847 - Shopping Competition

Title Weekly #847 - Shopping
Judge Flan
Closing Date 10/12/2023
Description
Its that time year, so anything shopping orientated, it can be shop windows with festive displays, people with too many carrier bags, food markets and marquees set up for the Christmas festivities in cities or the smallest villages, anything that gives that sense of the shopping experience in the run up to Christmas.
Usual rules Pentax cameras or clones
Ooh, I also meant too add that ICMs double exposures etc, are more than welcome just think Shopping and it doesn't have to be Christmas shopping either

Thanks to everyone who entered, I know and I understand that this time of the year can put extra demands on ones spare time.
Now to the Photos,
Go on! Treat yourself, by Nigelk.
A very clear capture of exchange. A street market florist earning his trade, the vendor making sure that the lady can hold the bunch of flowers along with all her extra shopping bags Nice observation Nigelk and much appreciated that you photographed it in this last week. The Q shines throughout as does the thought by its handler.

Hanky Panky by Gareth.
Cheeky shot but not the type of shopping one would do locally I suspect. I do notice that they don't open until 11 am on Sunday morning, that in itself saves me time hanging around outside and being noticed by passersby, so thanks for the time schedule Gareth.

Grandads Sausages, by JohnRiley
A another perfect exposure by you're good self, along with a composed capture of market activity, beautifully done as it is not as easy to compose when dealing with more than one person live

No not Donkey sausage
Reminds me of other marketeers that produce something out of there back garden shed, very proud people, but would I eat a sausage of donkey?

Everything but the kitchen sink, by Noelcmn
Hefty weight being carried by this lone shopper, a lot more than she bargained for comes across .

Passed by, by Jofford
A women about her business and couldn't care less or what the world has turned into, nice catch.

1st place Nigelk
2nd johnrilely
3rd jofford

Thank you everyone for entering, I hope that all is happy

Never be afraid to talk about your techniques...
