....the magical atmosphere of the Djeema el Fna, Marrakech. We found a restaurant overlooking the square, which was the perfect place to observe the activity. In the distance you can see the crowds gathering around the entertainers - comedians, magicians, musicians - the sound is amazing.

How incredible! Oh you must have had the most amazing time Patti! This is unlike any "nightlife" I've ever seen! Expertly taken shot with that lighting!

Almost look like a tapestry Patti. It is very well done. Did you try any of the candy the vendor is selling? Looks so good. I really like the contrasting lighting in this one.

This is super. It really reminds me of Jerusalem at night. The atmosphere in this is hard is hard to explain, but I can almost feel it. Just a wonderful picture.

Aah!..what do we do if there were no markets eh!...

A 'restaurant' eh!....I thought 'cafe' was more your taste!!!..

I suppose there would be interesting conversations to be had!!

Looks good honey..

Really gets the sense of hustle and bustle. Funny thing is it looks a lot more 'ordered' than I'd have imagined. What a great way to spend an evening, nice meal on a terrace and whiling away the hours people-watching. Do they do gin in Morocco ;-) Great shot P

I can smell the curry and wet camel just looking at this great photo, maybe a good thing that you observed from a distance. I love the lighting, so much to look at.

I'd love a close up of the dried fruit stall. I'm sure the sights,sounds and smells were amazing. Pity we've not got smello-vision!
