Photofeed photo contest : exploring the Udelka flea market (5 street photos)
Greetings! Today I selected five #street photo from my visit to the biggest St.Petersburg flea market at Udelnay railway station back in September 2023. Selection of random pics, no single thema given.
In the 1st one: digging thru the old vinyl stock. (I'm very much in love with vinyl, but only from its visual side, hehe). The market had a lot of kiosks selling such stuff, as vinyl records, used magnitofon cassettes, even patefones! (But gramophones are much more a rara avis - I have never seen a single one to buy for collecting).
'Samovar' is the rare case when Russia contributed a word to the English vocabulary. "What is the price for that one?"
I cant claim you can obtain here everything, no way - but you can stumble upon many many many intresting things here... surprising, unexpected, rare, dated and outdated - that you will never find elsewhere. (And at cheap price). Thats what attracts you here even if you dont need to buy anything.
Toys! Mountains of used toys. The goldmines, figurally saying.
The seller is away, but note: the pile of his stock is under watch, guarded by the dog.
Let me round up my today blog here, as this was all pics I managed to edit. I have much more to present, enaf stuff for half-dozen longread separate posts, so dont walk away - see you next time!
My post goes for Photofeed #streetphoto challenge, Round 178
