I really do hope those burgers were worth the wait!

This is one of a series of shots I took for the recent The Sunday Challenge , which had the theme of At The Market . Griffdel Signs regularly attend Northallerton Market to promote their business and take orders for personalised hand carved signs. Not only do they show off some sample signs, but the stall holder also sets up a small display so that people can see him working with wood. A really friendly and cooperative chap, he was happy to let me take some shots: some candid and some posed. I think though that this is my favourite from the series and the only reason I didn't submit it to the main group was that I felt it maybe lacked context.

Well I have to say it's been another of those week's where I've been somewhat intimidated by the challenge theme, but as the week's gone on I've felt I've risen to it somewhat. I really didn't like the idea of taking photos in shops or of people, but I ended up doing both albeit I got asked to leave one shop after I think I'd outstayed my welcome. Anyway, in the end I've opted to submit this shot to The Sunday Challenge as for me it summed up the feeling of a local summer market best. No doubt I'll post a few of the others in the new NOT The Sunday Challenge group as there were quite a few shots I liked.
