In complete contrast markets are colourful and have areal atmosphere to them. I do enjoy taking photos of them.

Also I love the many various market photos you take. I prefer markets to modern shopping malls too but sadly in my part of Canada the markets are few and far between and not as interesting as the ones in the UK. The shopping malls on the other hand are everywhere! <br /><br />Andrea cannylass, aka Andrea_44https://www.blogger.com/profile/12924581949767700097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-165025525174936030.post-22872401860645502962013-04-16T23:25:56.446-07:002013-04-16T23:25:56.446-07:00Thanks for all your comments as usual, David.

Unfortunately Wigan Pier is a little way out of the town and I didn't have time to go there as I was travelling around by bus and wanted to move on to Bolton. Next time maybe!Mike Blackstonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08571248711876350869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-165025525174936030.post-36497860334746075922013-04-16T12:10:05.642-07:002013-04-16T12:10:05.642-07:00Attractive old buildings, I'm of the same opin...Attractive old buildings, I'm of the same opinion as you regarding the newer shopping malls.
