I find that late Sunday afternoon’s in spring are a great time to explore York city centre. With the markets closed, the tourists at home and the sun peaking out, the city takes on a rare silence and allows me, as a local, to have some peace and quiet to explore the back alleyways, historic properties and marketplaces of the city.
This image is a vacant market stall on York Market – taken early evening once the stallholders had packed up and gone home. It’s silence and absence of items tells a tale. The marks on the tables are evidence of traders,exchanges and items for sale. Of bustle, chaos and eventual calm.
This image is shared in support of our “Yorkshire” week here on Taraji Blue where we put aside our wanderlust for a week and instead focus on the beauty and experiences we can find in our own backyard.
