Market vendors take great pains to make their wares attractive to potential buyers, and I suspect there are styles of display that could be identified, just as there are vocal come-ons that could be recorded. There’s not much that’s haphazard, and a lot of virtuoso arrangement goes into setup (indeed, photographing the process of setup would be a wonderful challenge). The two markets we visited, one daily (Adapazar\u0131) and the other weekly (Sapanca), were a delicious introduction to vast complexities, and all I managed to do was collect a tiny fragment of the rich variety. It takes me a long time to become comfortable enough to really see<\/i> what’s around me, and I regret that I hurried through both markets and didn’t do much to communicate with the sellers –most of whom were professionally friendly and entirely willing to talk to even a tongue-tied and clueless foreigner. I could ask the polite question (Foto\u011fraf\u0131n\u0131z\u0131 \u00e7ekebilir miyim?) but not much more. It was easier to communicate with piles of cabbages and buckets of olives\u2026<\/p>\n

\nSo here are some of the results:

\"veg1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"veg3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"greenery1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"produce1\"<\/a><\/center>
\nThere’s something fascinating about the display of single commodities, even if they’re nominally identical (I mean, a potato is a potato, except when it’s being an Individual, right?):

\"potatoes\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"peppers2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"mushrooms\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"garlic\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"domates1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"biber\"<\/a><\/center>
\nAnd bulk goods are carefully arrayed too:

\"bulk2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"bulk3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"olives1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"bags\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"acibiber1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"seeds\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"eggs2\"<\/a><\/center>(and more to come)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
