Oh my, I can almost SMELL your photos, and the first suggests there were so many goodies in garlic sauces there. Yummy!
How does the new camera feel in your hands?
Are you happy with what you get from it so far?
You must be!
Do you feel that the photos come out too light and bright and you want to adjust them a little? I do with my 350D...

Hi LaFoto
It was an overcast and dark day so the pictures came out a bit dark, all except for the ones from the market-stall which look just fine to me in terms of coloring and light. I am very happy with the 400D but it is so new that I still have to fumble to find anything on it, including the shutter button. It feels ok in my hands, it is a bit small but I don't consider that a problem, I'll get used to it.
And as for the food in the market stalls... I can confirm that there was plenty of garlic and other spicy things in them tasty goodies.

Nice pictures. For sure markets are for me the most fun places to shoot (and eat). Which market is this? and where?

This is an Arab market in the town of Haifa in Israel. Incidently, Haifa is one of the few places in Israel where Arabs and Jews coexist in absolute peace and harmony.
