We hope you enjoy perusing the contents of PublicMarkets.com. Our intention is to celebrate these places, to delight in their very existence. We portray the merchants, the customers, even the products, with great admiration, even when a picture might show something challenging, like a butchered animal or a trader’s scowl. These are all just elements of the Marketplaces that we enjoy.

We’re not surreptitious about shooting photos in the Markets nor do we always seek everyone’s permission when we take a picture. If someone were to indicate a desire to not be photographed we certainly would respect that request. So if you come across a photo of yourself or a family member that you wish were not included in a particular gallery, just let us know and we’ll take it down. We have no interest in compromising anyone’s sense of privacy or discretion.

The photos displayed herein have been taken over a period of many years. We wish we could continually update the photos so that they could always be current, but that just isn’t practical. Please forgive us the occasional photo of a merchant who’s no longer a tenant in a Market, or a sign that’s been altered. We appreciate hearing about these changes but we can’t always keep up with new images.
