I would have liked to of seen the produce in focus.

Kind of blurry!

Nice image here, but an image really should stand on it's own to fit the theme of the challenge, without a title.
It's produce. Had there been some signs to indicate that it was locally grown, or organic, or fed with 50% post-consumer waste or whatever, it would have been far more effective. As it is, we have no indication that anything here was reused, recycled, etc. without the title.

Is this an ad? ;\

I like the movement of the people - creates a busyness to the market scene. Pity the static areas weren't in sharper focus though.

Normally this technique is annoying, but somehow this works. Among the better entries of this challenge. - 6

The idea is OK for the challenge ΓΆ€“ but picture appears to be missing a definite point of interest. I personally would have tried showing the people picking some out some fruit/vegetables as opposed to going for the motion blur. Good luck either way!

I'm having trouble with the focal technique here. I get very frustrated when there is no obvious place for me to look. If the idea was a soft focus or even an abstract, you haven't gone far enough.

don't like the motion blur here, everything seems blurry as well

To me this is title dependent. The photo cannot stand alone for the challenge. Focus seems to be a bit off. Deeper DOF would help. More to the foreground and not the middle might help. (I have one w/this issue in my portfolio, too). Your colors are nice a vivid.

Great idea, and it looks really cool. The motion blur of the shoppers adds to the feel of the market.

I like the crowd blur but the fruits need to be clearer. I like that you got the neon sign in the shot. Maybe crop out some of the lefthand side to focus more on the right side foodstand.

i love markets like this - the hustle and bustle of these places really is so intoxicating - the blur, either intentional or accidental, adds to the kinetic feel of the image

the bright colors and people also works nicely

i find that the title is really important for this image to meet the challenge
