Colorful parasols were out in the area where fresh food is sold at the Khlong Toei market. These parasols are not so much to keep shoppers dry as they are to keep the food from being damaged by the direct sunlight.
Whatever the reason for putting them out, shoppers have to walk under the colorful parasols. There were colorful parasols where I stopped. A bright red parasol, a green parasol, and a blue parasol, just the right combination of primary colors. Looking at them reminded me of the time when I was a child when I would walk up to a cathode-ray tube television and look at the surface of the screen. The surface of the CRT TV was lined with tiny lights glowing red, green, and blue.
I snapped the shutter, thinking, "This place is also lined with those tri-colored parasols, so if you look at this aisle from a distance, it might be displaying something."
