The Vegetable Man
by Helen Betts

Zeyrek, Istanbul, Turkey

Not my trade, but since the host has kindly allowed us to use other people's trades as well, thought I'd post this image of a vegetable seller in Istanbul, which has always been one of my favorites.

Great capture - like Karen said - I love how the colorful fruit stands out in the otherwise plain scene.

Thanks, Karen. The green thiings are sivri biber, a type of green pepper that can be very hot. I love them and miss them when I'm not living in Turkey.Helen

Love the contrast of the bright and colorful vegetables against the rather drab background. What are the green ones? If those are green beans, they're huge!
