So, I had my first farmers market experience today. Had a great time, but it started to rain really bad so not so many people came by. Next time there will be some more events that the city will put up. Perhaps that will bring some more people. We sold a few bottles of salsa even though.
All shots with the 35mm f/2.0 ais.
This is great!. I'm glad you had a positive experience. A lot of vendors come one time and then get discouraged because they didn't sell enough to their mind. I try to tell them to keep coming and that it takes a while to build your customer base.
So... no restrictions with masks and social distancing?

I'd love to try your sauce.
Yes! We had a really great time. This is all new to us and we will keep on doing it for as long as we think it´s fun, and we are in it for the fun We had a few customers that have bought from us before and they loved the salsa, that made us very happy. If the shipping cost to the US wasn´t sky high I could send over a few bottles..
Last time I checked it was near 30USD sending 2 bottles
Yes, we had restrictions. The market itself was a fenced area and we were only allowed to take in 50 customers at a time, so there was a guy counting how many people going in and out. Also, all people were encouraged to hold a distance of 2m, which of course is a bit problematic dealing with customers. But we have no restrictions regarding using a face mask. If someone is having the slightest bit of symptom they have to stay home.
The government are still recommending risk groups (elders and already sick) to use a face mask while going out and only to meet people outdoors.
Numbers here have been going down a lot lately but people are still tending to follow restrictions. The county I live in now have less than 20 cases per 200000 inhabitants and we are 1,3 million in this county, which also is one of the most dense populated area in Sweden. I guess there´s a big risk for a second wave when autumn comes and vacations are over and so forth...time will tell. Let´s just hope everything will get better.
Glad you had fun Kristian! Any chance of international shipping for that salsa?

There is but unfortunately the shipping cost is very high from swe to US. I looked it up and the cost is about 25-30 usd. Thats 5 times more than what one bottle costs
Phong looks like there is no pandemic in VN. People having fun is the norm.
Leighton you really need to come back to Nikon. Your photo's are just too good to be wasted on Fuji
Reagan the D750 takes fine foto's.
The last of Luray before we start a trip to the YU P This includes thgeir world famous stalactite organ that thumps on those dekicat, million year old formations for tones. NOCT, EVF and flash. I really wish the new Z6 has a built in flash. High ISO, no matter how good does not compensate for a little fill flash.
Hi Ken,
We've spent 2 weeks lockdown in early April then came back to normal life for 3months up to now.
In the past week, some Chinese people did deliberate intrusion illegally. Sadly we've faced with increased Wuhan virus numbers of people. Next week will be most important time to control 2nd pandemic.
A little bird says with this wuhan virus intension on purpose to weaken Vietnam.
I'm not sure, maybe the 2nd lockdown sooner be announced. Government is trying to follow these Chinese people to isolate potential infected F1/2.
Linhof Master Technika, Nikkor-W 135mm f5.6 with Tiffen Orange #21 filter, developed in Cinestill Df96 monobath. George, I did get to finally use a bit of swing, apart from rise.
Belmont Manor, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belmont_Estate , almost 300 years old, in suburban Baltimore. This property is hidden in an area that's right next to I-95 but seems like quite a haven with a narrow one-car street with tall trees on both sides, going past a number of (also probably historic) private residential compounds.
The property itself is one of the oldest colonial plantations in the area. Of late it has been a conference center and wedding venue, and is now maintained by the county.
Stalactite organ, I remember that from my last trip there! I really wish I had a Noct when I visited
