Any Given Wednesday

anjuna flea market. it's world-famous, and like most things erin and i saw on our trip, recommended by lonely planet.

the approach is by sea, around the low cliffs that separate baga and anjuna. the water is blue and clear and cool. the boatmen grin as they collect their too-high fee. the sand at the beach is black (probably from diesel, although i like to think it's because anjuna beach is special and made of old volcanoes or something.)

the heat is intense, the crowd largely white, the music throbbing. the hawkers are persistent, the wares in abundance, the colours riveting.

take a look -- dozens of pick[s]@flick[r]:

(please note: the artiste thinks the set is best enjoyed in slideshow mode, to let the profusion and the colours really sink in)
