This is the weekly photo from Astoria Sunday Market! Shown here are regular Market vendors Mary Altieri (left) and Ronni Harris sporting hat creations by Ronni. As chose this shot it occurred to me that this blog rarely shows photos of people so I thought this would be a nice change.
Professional cameraman and photographer Jeff Daly has created an amazing tribute to Columbia River pilots through an interesting art display called Wood and Rope. The photographs are displayed on actual ladders used by the pilots as they transfer to the large ships. The display is in the commons area of the 14th Street Pilot Station located on the River Walk at the end of 14th.
"Ship on Stilts" is an image by Guest Blogger Karen Allen, one of the owners of Wet Dog Cafe and Astoria Brewing Company. She has been enjoying experimenting taking photos with her new phone camera. We'll be seeing more of her photos!
This is a picture from last year at the Skipanon Brand Seafood booth. You can still find Skipanon here at the Market every Sunday but this picture of the kids checking out the crawfish is among my favorites.
