Fair Trade Fabulousness

Inspired by a recent blog the 2095 chick recently read, she thought she would delve in to the plethora of images caught at market and find some that are "stand outs" but it must also be noted that ALL fair trade is a standout by her standards.

In a world where convenience apparently means saving time and mindlessly throwing things in to a basket or trolley, what really needs to be done is a bit of "slow", a bit of "let's see where this stuff comes from and who will benefit most from my purchase" thinking.

Whether it be clothing, cosmetics, food, soaps, drinks or whatever else you desire, if you take just a fraction of a moment to ponder, you may just be able to support a community without fully realising.

Darling Dahlias

As noted in an earlier post, the 2095 chick is not one who tends to get excited about leaves, twigs and trees BUT as a photographer there are some flowers scream to be captured on film (albeit digitally)

These hypnotic stunners appear to be 3D such is their natural beauty it is almost impossible to take a bad shot.  The Darling Dahlias is what the 2095 chick likes to call these beauties and luckily when in season they can be found at quite a few of her favourite markets!
