Sunday Snapshot: Sunday Market {Chiangmai, Thailand}

Photography is a very introspective practice for me. With camera in hand, I tend to get a bit lost in seeing the world through my viewfinder. Others around me tend to disappear a bit. The past few weeks have been wonderfully full of people time. Late night cinnamon roll making sessions with my sister. A quick jaunt up to the pacific northwest to see a special someone. Countless hours in the classroom, over coffee, at meals, and strolling the streets of Thailand with classmates. All entirely and sadly undocumented by my camera. However, knowing this might be my last time in Thailand for awhile, I knew there were some things I wanted to be sure to capture. Among those things is one of the attractions Chiang Mai is most famous for–the Sunday Market. While the goods offered don’t change much year to year, and the crowds at times are overwhelming, I still find myself drawn to this market. The lights, colors, and textures are a myriad source of inspiration. Thankfully, since it was my birthday, Amanda quite patiently indulged me in my slow stroll through the market with camera in hand.
