Took my Mamiya 6 out for some exercise to Pudu Market, a traditional wet market in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. 50/4 mounted and Velvia 100F loaded.

Nice!

I miss this kind of wet markets. Wet markets are disappearing in Singapore. Few young people want to buy from wet markets, and supermarket chains are also edging them out. Even existing ones are overly "clean".

I just acquired a six too with the 50 and a 150. Yet to produce work that is as nice as yours!
 
Great shots. I used to enjoy walking in the markets in Korea as my wife and mother-in-law shopped. Of course during that time we often didn't "know" each other or the prices went up. :D

But markets can be great photo ops as you have shown. The first photo is great for the color and symetry. The others are well exposed and composed documents of what one can find in these types of markets. BTW, this is the first time I have heard them described as wet markets.
