The Fish Market of Vila do Conde (Portugal)

This Fish Market is very simple. Still, I decided to post this for the #MarketFriday initiative started by @dswigle.

Nothing fancy about it. A few stands with fish... and that's it. So, why have these ladies complained when I took these photos?

"Can't photograph here!" - She shouted!

I smiled without speaking. She though I was a foreigner and I played along to avoid any argument. 😝

And then I took another photo:

This lady started shouting "Forbidden, forbidden..."

I didn't want to push my luck any further and went back outside.

The Market is called Mercado das Caxinas (Market Caxinas). Here's the front of the place:

I guess some people just don't want their photos taken. To contrast with the ladies, the guy on the phone wasn't camera shy, at all.

Still on his phone, unaware I was taking photos.

And now he sees me:

Notice how his behaviour changed...

Is he... posing? 😅 😅 😅

Wait, they're both posing for the camera!!! What a scene!!!

Ok, guys... thanks for the poses. That was... eh... unexpected.

Here's an animated gif, just for fun:

You've probably saw the Graffiti on the wall. Yep, of course I have it. It's a good one! Check it out on my next post Graffiti Works at Mercado das Caxinas, Vila do Conde (Portugal)
