Although, I did not realize that there was one at the Reading Terminal Market. The one I go to is the one in Chinatown. As for your great project, I wish to congratulate you on this. I haven't had a chance to visit the market yet, but through your eyes and words, I feel I am almost there. I am putting together a list of must-see places through you blog. Thanks again!

I was also surprised by the background bokeh (out of focus points of light) because it looks just like what you see from the Canon 50/1.8 lens (see the golden pentagons at the bottom?). And then I read your text and saw whose camera you were using and it all made sense. :) Anyway, not that I'm trying to feed your desire for a dSLR (or am I), but I really like this picture. Glad you enjoyed walking around with a camera. What's funny is that my typical approach to the market is to walk around and see it through the viewfinder of my camera, but I <i>never</i> do what you're doing and see it through the eyes of other people. <i>That</i> is impressive to me!
