Ilove the farmers market held on Nicollet Mall in downtownMinneapolis--it's open every Thursday from late April through sometimein October. The colors and the vendors are lively, the cubicle denizenscome down from the skyways, some of the street musicians come out andplay for the love of music (hoping to make a couple of bucks, too)... it all makes for a great place to get in some street photography. Of course you've always got a couple of panhandlers adding tothe texture of the urban fabric (though some of them are a little toowell-cared-for to be believably homeless).
