The Fish Market of Vila do Conde (Portugal)
This Fish Market is very simple. Still, I decided to post this for the #MarketFriday initiative started by @dswigle.
Nothing fancy about it. A few stands with fish... and that's it. So, why have these ladies complained when I took these photos?
"Can't photograph here!" - She shouted!
I smiled without speaking. She though I was a foreigner and I played along to avoid any argument. 😝
And then I took another photo:
This lady started shouting "Forbidden, forbidden..."
I didn't want to push my luck any further and went back outside.
The Market is called Mercado das Caxinas (Market Caxinas). Here's the front of the place:
I guess some people just don't want their photos taken. To contrast with the ladies, the guy on the phone wasn't camera shy, at all.
Still on his phone, unaware I was taking photos.
And now he sees me:
Notice how his behaviour changed...
Is he... posing? 😅 😅 😅
Wait, they're both posing for the camera!!! What a scene!!!
Ok, guys... thanks for the poses. That was... eh... unexpected.
Here's an animated gif, just for fun:
You've probably saw the Graffiti on the wall. Yep, of course I have it. It's a good one! Check it out on my next post Graffiti Works at Mercado das Caxinas, Vila do Conde (Portugal)

@trincowski signing out.
but for me this place is perfect ...
very interesting posts
Thanks for stopping by.
lol. it seems you've enjoyed yourself in this expedition of yours.
😂 you should have asked for their autograph.
@trincowski... the graffiti hunter. <<📷
Ahahah! Yes, I liked it.
I've just posted a few shots of the Graffiti works in this place. Have you seen them?
Haha, I am not sure they are really posing for you. I think they want to say "forbidden, forbidden". 😊
Ahahah! 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for snapping those photos in the fish market. Very interesting. I wonder why they didn't want you to do that?
I don't know. There's no confidential information over there, that's for sure. Also, these ladies love to be photographed when the politicians visit the market during the election campaign...
hahaha - you just have to carry a campaign flyer around with you 😄
And wear a suit and tie? 😂
Thanks for your visit.
I'm always very aware of people when I'm taking photographs @trincowski.
They don't seem to like it here as a general rule. And to be fair neither do I. That's why I wussed out yesterday when taking the pictures of the market stalls. 😁
i'm not sure what trade secrets there are in a fish market that makes it forbidden though. 😂
We're all different. Some people pose... Others hide. These ladies decided to shout at me. Ehehe.
Thanks for your comment.
Interesting post:)
Remember when you broke your foot from jumping out the second floor.
