San Lorenzo Market

I had my Illustration class today. Seems like a demanding class but hopefully will be alright. Our work will get published with some people or something who are trying to change parts of Florence (this is how I understood the assignment and her description of it). Basically between now and Thursday, I have to go around and photograph San Lorenzo and the area around it between Via Nazionale, Via Guelfa, and some others. Of the pictures I take, I have to choose 10 to bring in for Thursday's class. Eventually we will pick a topic of some sort that relates to the city (markets, people, tourism, multiculturalism, students, etc) and photograph that topic and research it, and eventually do illustrations based on them or something along those lines!
Here are the pictures I took today that I liked. They are mostly in the market building, San Lorenzo Market. I am standing on the upper level where all the vegetables and fruits are sold (below in the main section is meats, poulrty, cheeses, wines, pasta, and other food).


View of one of the passages on the main floor (meats/cheese etc), I'm standing on the stairs.

















A guy on a bike with 3 wheels...Not sure what he was doing in there...

















Mmm...Oranges.
