Quang Ba flower market in the rain

The Vietnamese buy flowers for every occasion and location, from wholesale commercial buyers to local people who are buying the flowers for celebrations, religious offerings and memorials. The Quang Ba flower maker in Hanoi is THE place to go for flowers. I arrived early one rainy morning to be greeted by a chaotic scene with people, flowers, umbrellas and buyers and sellers everywhere with the flowers arriving and leaving piled up on the back of motorbikes and bicycles that were an integral part of the scene. A colourful photographic challenge, indeed.

    I love the sunflowers (and their stems that resemble bamboo)!
