Fira de Sant Ponç by jborrases

Fira de Sant Ponç

May 11 is St. Pontius, the patron of herbalists, and therefore in many towns celebrate the fair of San Pontius. Medicinal herbs, natural sweets, honeys, and more are the main protagonists, mainly crafted in a natural way, away from chemicals and preservers. In the picture you see, the one that is being held at the Hospital Street, in the Raval neighborhood of Barcelona. Feel free to see more pictures in my Flickr's album.
Great street portrait. I like all the different expressions as people contemplate or complete their purchases.

People who is into herbalism has a unique look, that is what I found in NZ anyway. They look so interesting, I would love to try some.

@skstein I tried to convey all the things of a street market in one shot, perhaps the slightly out of focuss or blur. Thank you very much

@fntngrma Thank you very much
@yaorenliu I agree that people who is into herbalism or crafting natural products has another point of view of surrounding life. They are more self conscious about al lifeforms , animal or vegetal and more respectful with environment
