Market traders.

A rather overdone processed photo of Preston Covered Market.

I have discovered the Curve button on PicMonkey & there is no end of fun you can have with it!!

Rather a jumble of people & probably looks better large if you have the time!

Three good things:
1.Because the overhead light went on the cooker hood it forced Harry & I to clean it & put in a new filter paper.
2. It has been pouring down all day & I have lost count the number of times Harrry has said to me '' I'm so glad we aren't milking cows '' !
3.We are all warm & dry & pork chops in the oven for tea!!

Looks like lots going on!! Glad you are all warm and dry, and hoorah for pork chops :)

[Ruth Moucharafieh]

Life is good!!!!! Love the pic...a rather pleasant effect.....dislike seeing the christmas trees so soon!!!!!

[Pat Knowles]

@wrighty Yes hooray & no need to go outside!! Thank you for your comments Martha.

[Pat Knowles]

@ruthmouch Yes cheap tacky Christmas trees at that Ruth!

[Jane Pittenger]

Wild processing of a. Use place. I think it is fun occasionally to process outside of our usual style

[Sean O'Neill]

What a fantastic shot Pat.

[Pat Knowles]

@jgpittenger Nothing much to do today Jane it's so wet & I played around a little with PicMonkey.

This Is a lovely photo Pat looks quite packed I viewed this photo large and Ilove the brick work on the first building on the right of this photo the Market also reminds me a little bit of Barnstable Market North Devon the only difference Its a Indoor Market :-)

[Barbara Paquette]

I am more drawn to the fascinating ceiling here with the wires and ironwork. The clutter down below makes me anxious!

[Fanny Brogden]

Oh my word I thought it was wretched santas grotto!! Lovely photo just love markets!!

[Pat Knowles]

@bpaquette It does look very cluttered & not near enough to see any detail bit this market roof is very special with beautiful ornate structures & I wanted to show them off. You can see the end of this roof on my Covered Market photo a couple of days ago.

[Jean Tookey]

A great shot. I love markets.

[Judith Johnson]

I like your processing. It looks like a fascinating place to browse.

[Phil Howcroft]

overdone post processing can be good Pat...and this is good...lots ot 'tat' on sale by the look of it !

[Judith Greenwood]

I'm glad I don't have cows to milk too! @phil_howcroft hey Phil - only quality goods on the covered market. Apparently it's nearly Christmas though.

[Gillian]

I'm sure one could pick up all sorts of interesting things here. Hate seeing the Christmas trees 'tho. I do NOT need that sort of reminder :)

[Sean O'Neill]

Well done for experimenting with curves,a fab tool for adjusting contrast Pat. Levels next for you, and how about hue and saturation?

[Pat Knowles]

@seanoneill Ooh that sounds a challenge!!!

[Pat Knowles]

@judithg Hear, hear Judith ...how dare he!!! LOL ! (Have to secretly agree though ! )

[Susan Golding]

lots of bustle and colour.Lovely shot

[Rick Schies]

It's a fun photo, and it gives us a great view of everything under the roof.

[Peggy Sirk]

Fascinating marketplace shot, Pat! It looks like a very busy place! I'm with @bpaquette, though ~ all the stuff for sale makes my minimalist self a bit uneasy. :) It sounds like Harry is loving retirement...I'm so glad you are both enjoying a cool, rainy day inside having delicious pork chops rather than milking cows!!

[Lesley Allen]

Is that christmas trees I see.....oh noooooo not yet!! Great busy shot.

[Taephy]

haaa...yr three good things sound really good!

[Juliette Packham]

I really like this - you talk about me packing a lot into photos - you've done a great job here - such a lot to look at and another great POV. Really nicely processed too. Loving the repetition on the rafters
