Friday evening flower market
A local mini-market at St.Petersburg near my Tube. Today I had borrowed 3 lens, including my new fisheye, and I decided to enter this shop (that I pass by 10 times a week!) and make some shots for a nice challenge hold by @dswigle
and here we are. lens worked like a charm! I share unedited jpegs 'as shot' (just downscaled a bit)
I asked the seller at the counter if I may take a few pics... even more: I said from the start that i am not a customer and entered the shop just to ask permission and take a few pics... and (ooo, so strange!!!!!) he was very kind and frankly-smiling, and said: sure! (But before that, he asked me why do I need it. My answer was: cause I am a photographer, and I love to take nice pics -- this was enought to lull his suspiciousness, hehe )
Now I regret that I did not take advantage of his friendliness and did not photograph the counter itself. (I just really intended to take 2 test shots and not abuse any permission given...). And when I received such a splendid friendly “yes”, I was simply at a loss ...
And leaving, I bought one big 2$ rose for my wife. This made the end of the evening even more magical and courteous. By the way, next week we celebrate the 16th anniversary of our wedding ...

ps
As for the counter, well, it really looks splendid and worth watching for the things, that are beings suggested there... all the 'necessary stuff' accompanying the flowers: plush teddy bears, hearts, and so on. Dear @dswigle, I am a retard.... Now I have to return and take a few more shots, without this it will not look completed for me! :)))
How wonderful!! Congratulations on your 16 years this week! That is worthy of a celebration!
I have found that most vendors are really kind and almost always let me take photography in their store. It will get easier, the more you do it and they say yet! :)
#MarketFriday loves you!
