Old Delhi


Delhi is a very diverse city. You have the modern parts close to Connaught Place, where all the government buildings are and then you have Old Delhi. The area around Chandni Chowk is quite well known to tourists who regularly drive through there on bicycle rikshaws or you see groups being led through the hustle and bustle by guides. But as you go in even deeper (Chowri Bazaar) it gets really chaotic and fascinating. I've only seen one Westerner there and when we saw each other we immediately started talking to each other, expressing our disbelieve of finding such a place right in the middle of this otherwise quite modern Indian Metropolis.

Pomegranates for all


Instead of going to work/school today, we went for a day trip to Jerusalem, Israel. We went to the Old City and the Western Wall, but this photo was taken at the Muslim Quarter, where there's a market for all kinds of things (such as fruit, herbs, clothes, religious stuff etc...). These vivid-red pomegranates really caught my eyes, especially because of the background of the pale walls. Taken with an iphone by Better Nothing than Almost.

Fish Head Soup Anyone?


"I took a trip to my local market today. It is not USDA approved.

Just steam, add some fresh red peppers and a sweet & sour sauce and go to town. In much of China the head of the fish, especially the cheeks, are considered a delicacy. I haven't gone there yet... I have had the fish head soup. Once". More here. Taken by Expatriate Games

Calm Before the Storm


"This was Maiyegun in Lekki area, a quiet Lagos (Nigeria) market, where you could buy local artcraft and antics. But this was before this spot was bulldozed without warning by forces of the Lagos State Government on last September. Properties and artwork valued approximately at 30/40 million Naira was destroyed letting about 120 artists from the African Pride of Art & Crafts and many more people without hope and income".
