A while back I was down at Pike Place Market, aka Public Market or Farmer's Market, in downtown. It was mid-morning and the sun was up high enough to be flooding some parts of the market with brilliant sunshine. Although we see produce in the grocery market all the time, and it looks good, the sun on this little vegetable stand really made it stand out.
The Pike Market has been a fixture in Seattle since 1907. Per Wikipedia , it is the longest continually run farmer's market in the United States.
