Lights of the Market

While staying in Raleigh, I was experimenting with the Sony A7r and exploring its capabilities. I went inside a lively fresh market with many bright colors and unique products and produce. It was a fairly large building that I actually went into after walking around outside where the State Farmers Market was taking place. The camera has a variety of different presets and filters that you can use in live mode with your camera. I decided to try out the pop color filter and actually walked around with my camera to eye (kinda funny when you picture that).

It was like a different world that my eyes were now open to: Bright, vibrant colors, unique objects standing out, and many of colorful lights. Since I had my 35mm Voigtlander f/1.2 lens on, I decided to play around with the lights and some bokeh. I saw this man at wine tasting second and only had a few seconds to frame this man with the lights and bottles around him. What I really like about this shot is it is somewhat exaggerated with the colors and contrast and creates a really different reality out of daily life.
