Morning market in Sungai Ara

Wet markets are where most Penang locals start their days.

Early morning sun paints the Sungai Ara wet market building with warm hues providing a pretty backdrop for a silhouetted pigeon on a powerline.

Whether they are school bound or on their way to work, many stop here to grab breakfast either for themselves or their children.

Homemakers or housewives, are here first thing in the morning as well.

These early birds understand the best selections or the most choices for vegetables, meat & seafood don’t last long.

These wet market scenes can easily overwhelm anyone with a camera looking to make good pictures.

There is just a lot to take in. Fishmongers are cutting up the catch of the day, butchers slicing up cuts of meats, housewives are haggling over the prices while vendors are yelling out to passersby to come and take a closer look.
