Snapshots from the Pike Place Market

November 11, 2012

The kind of day that brings out people in full force, descending on the Market to soak up every bit of sunshine and enjoy the crisp Autumnal air. My ritual Saturday morning walk around the Market before I open the shop at 10 was filled with still-life beautiful produce.
