My idea of a perfect vacation destination!

My Favourite place.. I go there as often as I can. The trick if you want to eat there is to get there early before the tourists...

Great shots. I'm guessing you used a pretty large aperture to get that short depth of field.

We have some dirty lanes here, but they're not labeled.

Mainly an 85mm F/1.8 wide open.

There is an amazing cheese place in Borough Market.

I believe Bridget Jones' flat was just near The Globe Tavern - I am sure I have some photos somewhere!

Nothing to match them here in my little market town either..... but I enjoy going to Borough market when I go into the city, which sadly is all too few now. I must make the effort and go again soon

I have pictures I've taken of Borough market over the years , but can I find them?...nope... I can find pictures of Camden market.. and every market abroad ..but I can't find Borough market and I know I've taken pictures in the past. I'll keep looking

That looks like the kind of place I would absolutely love! There *must* be a good story behind the look you're getting in pic #5! Excellent photos, as always, @-Oy-

it is a wonderful place.. it has all speciality foods in loads of stalls ... it has several cafes, and bars.. it's the best market in London... but of course it gets seriously mobbed ...I'm sure you would love it ...

What a fascinating market. I could easily spend an entire day there!

You've captured the essence of the place, very well. The cheese photo has me salivating

I'd love some of those giant shrimp!!!!! And who buys those huge
wheels of cheese???

Great variety of pictures. If I was younger when we were traveling a place like that would definitely be high on the list to experience.

I've always wondered who buys those big cheeses, I suspect local bars and restaurants.... You do get to taste a little a bit of some of the cheeses... the Hams are something lse as well
