Nazareth, Old City Market
The market in the old city of Nazareth, Israel, offer a variety of goods from food to household, cloths to books, all in a colorful bustling and narrow streets and alleys. The market is one of Israel’s largest, traditional bazaars. It sprawls over a large part of the Old City and has spilled over into many secondary areas, such as the Vegetable Market where, despite the name, wedding dresses can be bought!
At weekends, the market is a major attraction for people across the Galilee, both Jews and Arabs, who come to sample the wide range of goods on offer.
Until recently, the shops were usually built from a jumble of wood, plastic and tin - sometimes completely blocking streets and squares - and the whole area was entangled in a web of electrical and telephone cables. But now the streets have been repaved with Galilee stones and black Golan basalt, and the market has been given a more modern look, though it still retains its traditional charm.

I really like the effect and colours. The movement of the woman on the right, who appears to be walking into the scene, makes it appear really dynamic.

Great shot , but can you do me a favour and add some information on the HDR process, things like , handheld or tripod, how many exposures if you have the setting even better, what software was used. That way I can accept into HDR Photography group.
