Autumn Flowers at the Village Market

Yikes! Something went wrong with the first shot. (Seriously--it was flash that went off and made the whole picture weird, so I reshot it.) But I used it anyway, because it looks sort of cool in a garish kind of way. The second one is the "real" one-looks more like the flowers really looked. And the third--more flowers at the Village Market. You can tell it is fall when they are selling mums and flowering cabbage.

I walk there every day from home, it's an 18-minute walk round trip most days. I feel very "continental" shopping daily for my food, and it's very fresh and good and uses much less gasoline, better for the environment.

I like the first one too. Sometimes what we consider failed is just a work of art! :() Bon dimanche,

Thank you so much Brian, Marie, jm, and babooshka. Even though it was an accident, I posted it because I did like it. :-D

I really like all three shots. Thanks for including that first ‘mistake’, as it actually makes a very interesting counterpoint to shot number two. Actually, I really like the shot in and of itself!

Fantastic photos with some great colours. I love autumn flowers and I wish my husband shared in my fascination. Trying to get my husband to buy me some flowers is like hitting my head against a brick wall hehe.

Oh dear, Paula, I hope he buys you some flowers. My husband is almost TOO GOOD and will buy me almost anything I want.

I don't know where to leave a return comment, Paula.
