Market Day in Turi

While some people in the United States (USA) get busy with their Black Friday (and also Cyber Monday), we have almost the same thing down here in Jogja / Yogya, the holy holiday of Muslims, Eid-ul-Adha. So, guess it’s time to go to the market and buy some vegetables for tomorrow dinner.. - Image courtesy of Jeffe Castan, French photographer who currently living in Turi, near Jogjakarta / Yogyakarta.
